Speaker 1: The flame colds to me, not by its warmth or

2
00:00:11,640 --> 00:00:18,200
Speaker 1: it's pumpkin spiced aroma, but by its desire for calamity

3
00:00:18,680 --> 00:00:19,840
Speaker 1: and destruction.

29
00:01:36,760 --> 00:01:40,720
Speaker 2: down the latest episode of Survivor. Had to blast really

30
00:01:40,800 --> 00:01:45,400
Speaker 2: great question that came up, which superhero would dominate the

31
00:01:45,480 --> 00:01:49,480
Speaker 2: Survivor challenges? And would Doctor Strange be allowed to be

32
00:01:49,600 --> 00:01:54,400
Speaker 2: on Survivor would they cast him with his magical spells

33
00:01:54,480 --> 00:01:56,240
Speaker 2: and stuff like that. So now we got into that

34
00:01:57,040 --> 00:02:00,200
Speaker 2: and then hey, later tonight we got this drop podcast here.

64
00:03:07,440 --> 00:03:10,359
Speaker 2: with some rapid fire fun. But guys, we're a week

65
00:03:10,520 --> 00:03:14,320
Speaker 2: plus into this NBA season. On the Drop podcast, we

66
00:03:14,520 --> 00:03:17,320
Speaker 2: like to uh do sort of big picture topics, so

67
00:03:17,760 --> 00:03:20,560
Speaker 2: we thought we'd have some questions one weekend, all right,

68
00:03:21,040 --> 00:03:22,920
Speaker 2: play along in the stream, team play along if you're

69
00:03:22,960 --> 00:03:26,160
Speaker 2: listening later, tweet us at No dunk Sinc. One weekend,

70
00:03:26,200 --> 00:03:29,960
Speaker 2: I want to know who is your MVP front runner?

71
00:03:30,000 --> 00:03:33,200
Speaker 2: And I gotta be honest, feels like there's like five

72
00:03:33,280 --> 00:03:36,360
Speaker 2: to eight guys at the MVP table. But make your

73
00:03:36,440 --> 00:03:39,920
Speaker 2: case today who you got MVP one weekend.

74
00:03:40,200 --> 00:03:44,160
Speaker 4: Oh, I couldn't decide between two men. I couldn't decide

75
00:03:44,200 --> 00:03:47,160
Speaker 4: between two men because of last night basically, so for me,

76
00:03:47,720 --> 00:03:50,480
Speaker 4: the two leading candidates right now Jana Santa Ta Kumpo

77
00:03:50,920 --> 00:03:55,000
Speaker 4: and Luka Doncic, I think are the guys Luca after

78
00:03:55,200 --> 00:03:57,080
Speaker 4: last night? Like, yeah, I don't know the you know

79
00:03:57,160 --> 00:03:58,880
Speaker 4: the or the Mavericks don't have quite as good of

80
00:03:58,920 --> 00:04:02,240
Speaker 4: a record as the Bucks. But Luca is averaging thirty

81
00:04:02,280 --> 00:04:05,200
Speaker 4: six points, nine and a half rebounds, and nine assists.

82
00:04:05,480 --> 00:04:08,960
Speaker 4: And in that overtime period last night against the Nets,

83
00:04:09,320 --> 00:04:11,920
Speaker 4: the guy looked like the most valuable player that's ever lived.

84
00:04:13,200 --> 00:04:15,480
Speaker 4: They were like he was getting double teams, not even

85
00:04:15,560 --> 00:04:17,720
Speaker 4: making moves to flick as little behind the back pass

86
00:04:17,800 --> 00:04:20,160
Speaker 4: to a Maxi Kleba for a wide open three. So

87
00:04:20,279 --> 00:04:23,080
Speaker 4: I said a preseason, if Luca averages a thirty point

88
00:04:23,120 --> 00:04:26,320
Speaker 4: triple double, he'll probably win MVP. So I think he's

89
00:04:26,360 --> 00:04:28,719
Speaker 4: still certainly in the mix. And then Giannis has got

90
00:04:28,880 --> 00:04:31,480
Speaker 4: to be considered as well. A lot of people think

91
00:04:31,520 --> 00:04:33,720
Speaker 4: he's the best player in the league myself included. He's

92
00:04:33,760 --> 00:04:37,000
Speaker 4: at thirty six a game, thirteen rebounds, five assists, and

93
00:04:37,120 --> 00:04:39,440
Speaker 4: the Bucks are undefeated. They just haven't had to play

94
00:04:39,480 --> 00:04:42,680
Speaker 4: a whole bunch, which is nice for Yiannis because he

95
00:04:42,800 --> 00:04:45,160
Speaker 4: just gets to put up forty three forty four like

96
00:04:45,240 --> 00:04:45,960
Speaker 4: it's no big deal.

97
00:04:46,080 --> 00:04:49,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, so those are my top two front runners. They're

98
00:04:49,560 --> 00:04:51,440
Speaker 2: the ones with the menus in hand at the MVP.

99
00:04:51,560 --> 00:04:54,600
Speaker 3: Tam, Yeah, I agree, Yeah, I agree. But the NBA

100
00:04:54,680 --> 00:04:56,160
Speaker 3: is in a good place right now. I'm very proud

101
00:04:56,200 --> 00:04:59,719
Speaker 3: to be wearing this NBA hat right now because because

102
00:04:59,760 --> 00:05:02,480
Speaker 3: they're Yeah, it's a nice little flex fit. That's the

103
00:05:02,520 --> 00:05:05,320
Speaker 3: great thing about this that it's not stiff around the side,

104
00:05:05,400 --> 00:05:10,800
Speaker 3: so just really caters my noggin. I will say he's

105
00:05:10,920 --> 00:05:15,120
Speaker 3: got obviously the wins, which as you said, they're still undefeated.

106
00:05:15,200 --> 00:05:17,880
Speaker 3: And I think what really helps him besides him, you know,

107
00:05:18,000 --> 00:05:21,320
Speaker 3: picking his spots like he never has before, being the

108
00:05:21,440 --> 00:05:24,760
Speaker 3: best that he ever has, really sixty eight percent from

109
00:05:24,800 --> 00:05:27,760
Speaker 3: the floor on thirty six points per game. He's he's

110
00:05:27,839 --> 00:05:30,520
Speaker 3: so good at picking his spots. That's the maturity of him,

111
00:05:30,560 --> 00:05:33,400
Speaker 3: and he defends. But also he's got his Brook back.

112
00:05:33,760 --> 00:05:36,719
Speaker 3: The fact that Brook Lopez is standing beside him blocking

113
00:05:36,760 --> 00:05:39,760
Speaker 3: shots like crazy is going to help their defense. He

114
00:05:40,200 --> 00:05:44,880
Speaker 3: now becomes the second big in the lane, and I

115
00:05:44,920 --> 00:05:46,800
Speaker 3: think that's just gonna help him stay on the floor

116
00:05:46,880 --> 00:05:49,560
Speaker 3: more and it's gonna help the win total. Baby, So

117
00:05:49,960 --> 00:05:52,960
Speaker 3: he's got so much going for him. Luca's got the

118
00:05:53,080 --> 00:05:56,279
Speaker 3: narrative of it's just me, it's just me out here,

119
00:05:56,400 --> 00:05:59,480
Speaker 3: and you saw what happened on on Thursday night. They

120
00:05:59,600 --> 00:06:01,480
Speaker 3: just the nets when he was on the floor, but

121
00:06:01,520 --> 00:06:03,760
Speaker 3: they were a minus sixteen when he was off the floor.

122
00:06:03,880 --> 00:06:07,320
Speaker 3: So an absolute perfect narrative. It really is the Nicola

123
00:06:07,400 --> 00:06:10,040
Speaker 3: Jokic from last year when Michael Porter Junior and Jamal

124
00:06:10,120 --> 00:06:13,560
Speaker 3: Murray were hurt. This is very similar with those numbers

125
00:06:13,600 --> 00:06:16,159
Speaker 3: as Tree match in thirty six, nine and a half,

126
00:06:16,800 --> 00:06:19,480
Speaker 3: nine point three in the assist, so he's close to

127
00:06:19,560 --> 00:06:24,039
Speaker 3: that triple double, two steals and a block so the floor. Yeah, yeah,

128
00:06:24,040 --> 00:06:26,200
Speaker 3: we won't mention a three point percentage, but yeah they're

129
00:06:26,200 --> 00:06:28,440
Speaker 3: sitting at two and two, so the voters still have

130
00:06:28,560 --> 00:06:31,680
Speaker 3: to be comfortable, most likely voting for a guy who

131
00:06:31,880 --> 00:06:35,000
Speaker 3: is four or five six seed. And so that was

132
00:06:35,040 --> 00:06:36,720
Speaker 3: the Jokich thing from last year. I think it goes

133
00:06:36,760 --> 00:06:38,840
Speaker 3: to somebody at the top of the standings. But he's

134
00:06:38,880 --> 00:06:42,240
Speaker 3: got the narrative, he's got the perfect recipe and the

135
00:06:42,320 --> 00:06:45,200
Speaker 3: perfect game, and he has come out and been extremely fit,

136
00:06:45,320 --> 00:06:47,560
Speaker 3: I think for the first time in his career. The

137
00:06:47,640 --> 00:06:50,719
Speaker 3: way he's doing this game in and game out, overtime, yeah,

138
00:06:50,800 --> 00:06:53,000
Speaker 3: I mean it looks like playoff Luca, where you can

139
00:06:53,040 --> 00:06:54,840
Speaker 3: depend on him every single minute of a game, and

140
00:06:54,839 --> 00:06:56,679
Speaker 3: I don't think that was the case in October, November,

141
00:06:56,760 --> 00:06:58,920
Speaker 3: December through the first four years of his career.

142
00:06:59,080 --> 00:07:01,840
Speaker 2: I was excited to see Luca talking some shit there

143
00:07:01,920 --> 00:07:06,320
Speaker 2: to some courtside fans baseline in Brooklyn last night early

144
00:07:06,520 --> 00:07:09,520
Speaker 2: he got it going and had a monster game. And yeah,

145
00:07:09,720 --> 00:07:12,400
Speaker 2: the pass, the Larry Bird like pass over the head

146
00:07:12,800 --> 00:07:15,280
Speaker 2: to Kliba that we've seen here now and he's putting

147
00:07:15,280 --> 00:07:17,200
Speaker 2: on a show. Those are two great front runners. I

148
00:07:17,240 --> 00:07:19,520
Speaker 2: will add some names, what about this guy to the

149
00:07:19,640 --> 00:07:21,920
Speaker 2: MVP discussion, because you can sit here and make a

150
00:07:22,000 --> 00:07:24,600
Speaker 2: legit case for like three or four other guys. Tatum

151
00:07:25,280 --> 00:07:27,360
Speaker 2: thirty two and a half points per game, eight boards,

152
00:07:27,400 --> 00:07:29,960
Speaker 2: three and a half assists, a block and a half,

153
00:07:30,440 --> 00:07:32,720
Speaker 2: his affective field goal percentage is sixty three percent for

154
00:07:32,800 --> 00:07:34,840
Speaker 2: crying out loud, So he's there. I feel like the

155
00:07:34,880 --> 00:07:39,280
Speaker 2: Celtics are like after obviously a pretty crazy offseason with

156
00:07:39,320 --> 00:07:42,200
Speaker 2: everything happening with Udoka, so they're sort of like not

157
00:07:42,280 --> 00:07:44,400
Speaker 2: being discussed all that much right now, just going about

158
00:07:44,440 --> 00:07:46,920
Speaker 2: their business, and he's like the main reason why Joki

159
00:07:47,080 --> 00:07:49,280
Speaker 2: is still there twenty two, eleven and nine, shooting sixty

160
00:07:49,320 --> 00:07:52,000
Speaker 2: five percent from the floor on only twelve field goal attempts.

161
00:07:52,480 --> 00:07:54,680
Speaker 2: He's not gonna win probably MVP again. I'm gonna go,

162
00:07:54,760 --> 00:07:56,760
Speaker 2: you know, back to back to back, but he's in

163
00:07:56,840 --> 00:07:59,880
Speaker 2: the mix. Jah Morant, oh baby yeah, thirty three seven

164
00:08:00,080 --> 00:08:03,720
Speaker 2: in four, hitting a hilarious fifty six percent from three

165
00:08:03,880 --> 00:08:06,240
Speaker 2: right now where he never jumps. The only time he

166
00:08:06,240 --> 00:08:08,560
Speaker 2: doesn't jump, as we've talked about, he just goes up

167
00:08:08,560 --> 00:08:10,120
Speaker 2: on his tippy toes and knock down those three. So

168
00:08:10,200 --> 00:08:12,880
Speaker 2: that's amazing. And then I think, you know, not just

169
00:08:12,920 --> 00:08:14,960
Speaker 2: because of last night, in another Monster game, Steph Curry

170
00:08:15,040 --> 00:08:18,480
Speaker 2: is still there, thirty one, six and six. He's shooting

171
00:08:18,680 --> 00:08:21,239
Speaker 2: forty six percent from three, and it's a little different

172
00:08:21,240 --> 00:08:24,840
Speaker 2: than jaw where Steph Curry attempts twelve three pointers per game,

173
00:08:25,520 --> 00:08:28,600
Speaker 2: he's forty six percent. And we saw this couple he

174
00:08:28,680 --> 00:08:30,360
Speaker 2: hit last night against the Heat, and then the second

175
00:08:30,400 --> 00:08:34,480
Speaker 2: game there on on NBA TV, and then Lillard the

176
00:08:34,559 --> 00:08:36,439
Speaker 2: injury sort of sucks. He's there in the mix, and

177
00:08:36,480 --> 00:08:38,199
Speaker 2: I guess Devin Booker would be my final name. I

178
00:08:38,240 --> 00:08:39,880
Speaker 2: got seven or eight guys here. I know it sounds crazy,

179
00:08:39,920 --> 00:08:42,000
Speaker 2: but we're only a week in. Booker thirty two and

180
00:08:42,000 --> 00:08:44,440
Speaker 2: a half points per game, just like Tatum six assists

181
00:08:44,480 --> 00:08:47,439
Speaker 2: and insane efficiency as well, shooting splits a fifty three,

182
00:08:47,920 --> 00:08:51,079
Speaker 2: forty eight and eighty eight. What a time to be

183
00:08:51,080 --> 00:08:53,920
Speaker 2: an NBA fan. Man has some stars balling out here,

184
00:08:54,120 --> 00:08:56,920
Speaker 2: and it's wild, like we're not even including Like you're like, well,

185
00:08:57,320 --> 00:08:59,120
Speaker 2: usually you got Lebron in one of these lists, and

186
00:08:59,160 --> 00:09:01,880
Speaker 2: you got kd in one of these lists, and they're

187
00:09:02,000 --> 00:09:04,080
Speaker 2: like nine, ten, eleven, twelve wherever they are right now.

188
00:09:04,120 --> 00:09:05,760
Speaker 2: I mean, Lebron's not even there because this team hasn't

189
00:09:05,760 --> 00:09:06,160
Speaker 2: even win.

190
00:09:06,320 --> 00:09:09,679
Speaker 3: But crazy, it is crazy Durance averaging thirty three points

191
00:09:09,720 --> 00:09:15,440
Speaker 3: a game. Whatever. Yeah, there's there's too much talent out there.

192
00:09:15,520 --> 00:09:18,959
Speaker 3: There's too much. You see Curry is motivated right now too.

193
00:09:19,040 --> 00:09:24,560
Speaker 3: It feels like Tyler here, you're switching Tyler Hero on me. Hello,

194
00:09:25,040 --> 00:09:29,000
Speaker 3: let's dance maybe on that MVP floor. Yeah, he is

195
00:09:29,200 --> 00:09:31,959
Speaker 3: the best shooter in the game, and he's also hitting

196
00:09:32,400 --> 00:09:34,920
Speaker 3: the most shots in the game at a ridiculous percentage.

197
00:09:34,960 --> 00:09:37,200
Speaker 3: He said six more threes than anyone else in the league.

198
00:09:37,240 --> 00:09:39,480
Speaker 3: He's gonna turn thirty five this year. It just feels

199
00:09:39,480 --> 00:09:43,280
Speaker 3: like everybody's coming in here very fit, very very ready

200
00:09:43,320 --> 00:09:45,800
Speaker 3: to go. Maybe it's just the modern game that guys

201
00:09:45,880 --> 00:09:47,400
Speaker 3: are just going to be ready to out the ball.

202
00:09:47,679 --> 00:09:51,360
Speaker 3: Just Luca yesterday, he went fast on one possession. This

203
00:09:51,480 --> 00:09:53,560
Speaker 3: wasn't that I'm gonna take my possession and I'm going

204
00:09:53,640 --> 00:09:55,040
Speaker 3: to take my time, but he got I think it

205
00:09:55,160 --> 00:09:57,679
Speaker 3: was Kyrie and like they threw everybody out.

206
00:09:57,679 --> 00:10:00,680
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, he was abusing O'Neil Simmons, don't have a chance.

207
00:10:01,120 --> 00:10:03,240
Speaker 2: Patty Mills once or twice was on him in the

208
00:10:03,280 --> 00:10:04,800
Speaker 2: post like good luck, but.

209
00:10:05,120 --> 00:10:07,559
Speaker 3: He sped by. I think it was Kyrie would with

210
00:10:07,920 --> 00:10:11,679
Speaker 3: a quick crossover and got to the rim and everybody

211
00:10:11,720 --> 00:10:15,760
Speaker 3: looks ridiculous. I think jaw is my I guess, just

212
00:10:15,840 --> 00:10:18,240
Speaker 3: my my guy. I want to watch the most MVP

213
00:10:18,400 --> 00:10:21,280
Speaker 3: sure for me with the highlights. I think he's put

214
00:10:21,320 --> 00:10:25,160
Speaker 3: together the best highlight package of anybody currently and I

215
00:10:25,200 --> 00:10:27,559
Speaker 3: don't think he's I don't think we've even seen his

216
00:10:27,640 --> 00:10:30,559
Speaker 3: best highlights. So it's a good time.

217
00:10:30,720 --> 00:10:33,319
Speaker 2: Yeah, So, of those seven or eight names, who is

218
00:10:33,400 --> 00:10:36,480
Speaker 2: your MVP? After basically, you know, one week of basketball

219
00:10:36,520 --> 00:10:38,840
Speaker 2: here most teams have played anywhere? Well, yeah, the bucksibly

220
00:10:38,840 --> 00:10:42,000
Speaker 2: played three games, very weird schedule. Everybody else has played

221
00:10:42,480 --> 00:10:45,200
Speaker 2: generally four or five games at this point of the season.

222
00:10:45,280 --> 00:10:47,800
Speaker 2: Let's hear from you guys there in the stream team MVP.

223
00:10:48,120 --> 00:10:49,439
Speaker 2: Is it too early to talk about it?

224
00:10:49,800 --> 00:10:50,040
Speaker 4: Hell?

225
00:10:50,320 --> 00:10:50,360
Speaker 3: No?

226
00:10:51,160 --> 00:10:55,439
Speaker 2: Next question, one weekend, biggest surprise task you get started on.

227
00:10:55,480 --> 00:10:57,319
Speaker 2: This one could be a team, could be a player,

228
00:10:57,760 --> 00:10:59,400
Speaker 2: positive negative surprise.

229
00:10:59,480 --> 00:11:01,559
Speaker 3: But let's roll with the Utah Jazz. I know we've

230
00:11:01,600 --> 00:11:04,400
Speaker 3: been talking about him, but Will Hardy had a great

231
00:11:04,520 --> 00:11:07,160
Speaker 3: training camp with this team. Head coach Will Hardy got

232
00:11:07,240 --> 00:11:09,840
Speaker 3: his guys believing, five guys on the floor that can

233
00:11:09,920 --> 00:11:13,960
Speaker 3: make a play. It's pretty fun to watch. You've got Obviously,

234
00:11:14,080 --> 00:11:18,199
Speaker 3: the guy leading the show is Lowry Markinen with a

235
00:11:18,320 --> 00:11:22,400
Speaker 3: ridiculous twenty two to nine. Right now, he is looking

236
00:11:22,520 --> 00:11:25,400
Speaker 3: like that guy that people thought we'd get with the

237
00:11:25,480 --> 00:11:28,640
Speaker 3: number seven pick. He's shooting forty nine percent from the

238
00:11:28,679 --> 00:11:30,839
Speaker 3: floor too. This isn't this isn't garbage stuff. His three

239
00:11:30,840 --> 00:11:34,480
Speaker 3: point shoot shooting can come up. But like I was

240
00:11:34,520 --> 00:11:38,320
Speaker 3: talking about, sort of with with Luca quarters one through four,

241
00:11:38,440 --> 00:11:40,719
Speaker 3: Lowry Market is a guy you thought would fade, but

242
00:11:41,080 --> 00:11:45,080
Speaker 3: he finds a way to make a difference through four quarters.

243
00:11:45,120 --> 00:11:48,559
Speaker 3: So Mike Conley is feeding him. Jordan Clarkson is beside

244
00:11:48,600 --> 00:11:53,360
Speaker 3: Mike Conley. You've got Jared Vanderbilt, Lowry, Markinen, and Kelly

245
00:11:53,440 --> 00:11:58,320
Speaker 3: Olinick monstrous front line. And as I said, everybody can

246
00:11:58,360 --> 00:12:01,160
Speaker 3: make a plate. Jared Vanderbilt maybe can't make a play,

247
00:12:01,200 --> 00:12:03,880
Speaker 3: but everybody is sort of relied on. And as I

248
00:12:03,920 --> 00:12:07,880
Speaker 3: said about the training camp, they're feeling themselves. And you

249
00:12:08,040 --> 00:12:10,199
Speaker 3: come off the bench with guys like Collin Sexton and

250
00:12:10,360 --> 00:12:13,439
Speaker 3: Rudy Gay and a whole bunch of talent. There's just

251
00:12:13,559 --> 00:12:18,199
Speaker 3: there's a lot of talent on that roster. Not it's

252
00:12:18,280 --> 00:12:21,320
Speaker 3: kind of odd because they're projected win totals like twenty

253
00:12:21,360 --> 00:12:23,920
Speaker 3: four and a half. It's not top end talent. They

254
00:12:23,960 --> 00:12:27,040
Speaker 3: do not have a superstar, but guys who can play

255
00:12:27,160 --> 00:12:29,480
Speaker 3: with each other, and if you're taking a night off

256
00:12:29,760 --> 00:12:31,760
Speaker 3: this team will beat you because they're working their asses

257
00:12:31,800 --> 00:12:32,720
Speaker 3: off defensively as well.

258
00:12:32,800 --> 00:12:34,760
Speaker 2: Twenty nine assists per game for the Jazz right now,

259
00:12:34,960 --> 00:12:38,360
Speaker 2: six guys averaging over ten points per game. And look,

260
00:12:39,040 --> 00:12:40,840
Speaker 2: you know, a four and one record, but it's against

261
00:12:40,880 --> 00:12:44,560
Speaker 2: good teams. They demolished the Nuggets in their season opener

262
00:12:44,600 --> 00:12:46,560
Speaker 2: and everyone was like, okay, wow, I mean caught Denver

263
00:12:46,679 --> 00:12:48,880
Speaker 2: by surprise. Good win there, Utah. But then they went

264
00:12:48,920 --> 00:12:50,800
Speaker 2: on on the road and beat the Wolves and the Pelicans,

265
00:12:50,840 --> 00:12:54,040
Speaker 2: two teams people are high on both. In overtime. They

266
00:12:54,120 --> 00:12:56,040
Speaker 2: finally lost to the Rockets, but they got that back

267
00:12:56,080 --> 00:12:58,040
Speaker 2: when they played them two nights later, and that's why

268
00:12:58,080 --> 00:13:00,679
Speaker 2: they're at this four and one record. Defense hasn't dropped

269
00:13:00,720 --> 00:13:03,240
Speaker 2: off after Rudy Gobert left. Right now, they're leading the

270
00:13:03,320 --> 00:13:06,200
Speaker 2: league in offensive rebounds. Everybody chipping in. Will Hardy's winning

271
00:13:06,240 --> 00:13:09,079
Speaker 2: coach of the year one weekend. They're an easy surprise.

272
00:13:09,120 --> 00:13:11,640
Speaker 2: I'm sure they were on your list, TK. It was

273
00:13:11,679 --> 00:13:13,679
Speaker 2: almost probably too obvious at this point. How can you

274
00:13:13,760 --> 00:13:15,760
Speaker 2: not be surprised by the four and one Utah Jazz?

275
00:13:15,880 --> 00:13:17,719
Speaker 4: Exactly right, We've talked about the Jazz a ton I

276
00:13:17,800 --> 00:13:19,360
Speaker 4: feel like and we got to get it in now,

277
00:13:19,400 --> 00:13:22,720
Speaker 4: because there's no way this team sticks together for long

278
00:13:22,840 --> 00:13:25,439
Speaker 4: enough to make a real run at a play in

279
00:13:25,559 --> 00:13:30,199
Speaker 4: tournament or anything like that. But playing so hard that

280
00:13:30,400 --> 00:13:32,600
Speaker 4: kind of effort every single night has been super impressive.

281
00:13:32,640 --> 00:13:34,880
Speaker 4: From the Jazz, the team that has surprised me and

282
00:13:35,000 --> 00:13:36,959
Speaker 4: also a player that has surprised me gotta be the

283
00:13:37,040 --> 00:13:41,000
Speaker 4: Charlotte Hornets now Dennis Smith Junior. Apparently, Dennis Smith Junior

284
00:13:41,120 --> 00:13:43,520
Speaker 4: is back and a regular rotation member had to step

285
00:13:43,600 --> 00:13:47,199
Speaker 4: into the starting lineup for the Hornets with LaMelo going down,

286
00:13:47,240 --> 00:13:49,920
Speaker 4: with Terry Rozier missing time. Suddenly, he looks to be

287
00:13:49,920 --> 00:13:52,640
Speaker 4: an ok starting point guard thirteen and a half points

288
00:13:52,679 --> 00:13:55,679
Speaker 4: per game. He's also averaging six assists. Just looks like

289
00:13:55,720 --> 00:13:58,520
Speaker 4: a solid player. He's playing defense. He said he almost

290
00:13:58,600 --> 00:14:01,120
Speaker 4: quit playing NBA basketball to go to the NFL. I

291
00:14:01,240 --> 00:14:04,319
Speaker 4: read that he's like I put on hellaweight. I think

292
00:14:04,360 --> 00:14:07,319
Speaker 4: that's hilarious. But he looks tough, he looks explosive, He's

293
00:14:07,320 --> 00:14:11,240
Speaker 4: shooting fifty percent. He's a solid little player right now.

294
00:14:11,400 --> 00:14:13,800
Speaker 4: So maybe a cool find for the Hornets and the

295
00:14:13,840 --> 00:14:16,680
Speaker 4: fact they got two wins already. I thought it would

296
00:14:16,679 --> 00:14:20,640
Speaker 4: take him much longer, especially with LaMelo missing time to

297
00:14:20,680 --> 00:14:23,760
Speaker 4: start the season. They've done a good enough job. I

298
00:14:23,840 --> 00:14:26,200
Speaker 4: think they're surprising teams as well, just like the Jazz

299
00:14:26,240 --> 00:14:29,440
Speaker 4: are you're probably overlooking them, but I was overlooking him

300
00:14:29,480 --> 00:14:31,840
Speaker 4: coming into this season, and they've impressed me.

301
00:14:31,920 --> 00:14:35,440
Speaker 2: So I have the Dennis Smith Junior redemption arc written

302
00:14:35,480 --> 00:14:38,040
Speaker 2: in my notes as well as surprising or even someone

303
00:14:38,080 --> 00:14:39,840
Speaker 2: you could pay more attention to if you're not paying

304
00:14:39,880 --> 00:14:43,560
Speaker 2: attention to the NBA entirely, because yeah, he's playing because

305
00:14:43,640 --> 00:14:45,920
Speaker 2: LaMelo's hurt, He's getting an opportunity. Like, think of this

306
00:14:46,000 --> 00:14:49,000
Speaker 2: guy's career. I mean, he's drafted in twenty seventeen, he's

307
00:14:49,040 --> 00:14:51,240
Speaker 2: a top ten pick. The MAVs take him. You know,

308
00:14:51,440 --> 00:14:53,600
Speaker 2: he put up numbers if you remember, but it was

309
00:14:53,680 --> 00:14:56,880
Speaker 2: never really efficient. No one was convinced he was like

310
00:14:57,000 --> 00:14:59,560
Speaker 2: a starting point guard in this league. And then he

311
00:14:59,640 --> 00:15:02,200
Speaker 2: bounced around. He was traded in the Porzingis deal, so

312
00:15:02,280 --> 00:15:04,040
Speaker 2: he finds his way to the next He gets injured

313
00:15:04,040 --> 00:15:05,600
Speaker 2: a lot there. He can't hit a three to save

314
00:15:05,680 --> 00:15:08,560
Speaker 2: his life. Then he's moved in the Derreck Rose deal

315
00:15:09,280 --> 00:15:11,120
Speaker 2: to the Pistons. You know, Derek ros coming back to

316
00:15:11,200 --> 00:15:14,560
Speaker 2: New York. He played what you know, a handful of

317
00:15:14,600 --> 00:15:17,080
Speaker 2: games for them last year. He's playing on the Blazers.

318
00:15:17,560 --> 00:15:19,240
Speaker 2: You could you could have tested me on that. I

319
00:15:19,280 --> 00:15:21,360
Speaker 2: wouldn't have been able to tell you that. He played like,

320
00:15:21,400 --> 00:15:23,480
Speaker 2: you know, thirty five games there and he looks like

321
00:15:23,560 --> 00:15:25,840
Speaker 2: you like at that point, you're like you are you

322
00:15:25,920 --> 00:15:27,440
Speaker 2: going to be able to hang around in the NBA?

323
00:15:27,520 --> 00:15:30,040
Speaker 2: And Trey said it like he said before he signed

324
00:15:30,040 --> 00:15:32,280
Speaker 2: the non guaranteed contract with the Hornets, he told his

325
00:15:32,320 --> 00:15:35,560
Speaker 2: agent like, I'm not going overseas to play hoopes. I'm

326
00:15:35,560 --> 00:15:38,800
Speaker 2: gonna maybe try and make the NFL as a defensive back.

327
00:15:38,880 --> 00:15:43,280
Speaker 2: I guess like crazy, but sort of lucky for basketball fans.

328
00:15:43,760 --> 00:15:45,280
Speaker 2: You know, got a chance here with the Hornets, and

329
00:15:45,520 --> 00:15:47,320
Speaker 2: the ball injury opened up some playing time. He's taking

330
00:15:47,320 --> 00:15:48,960
Speaker 2: advantage of it. He looks good. We saw him in

331
00:15:49,000 --> 00:15:51,840
Speaker 2: person and we were like oohing and a couple of times,

332
00:15:52,200 --> 00:15:55,360
Speaker 2: Dann Smith Junior damn like he was. He's playing really

333
00:15:55,440 --> 00:15:57,960
Speaker 2: Solid's shooting fifty two percent from the floor and for

334
00:15:58,080 --> 00:16:00,880
Speaker 2: him a ridiculous fifty percent from deep. So good start.

335
00:16:00,960 --> 00:16:01,880
Speaker 2: I have them in my notes.

336
00:16:02,120 --> 00:16:05,320
Speaker 3: Yeah, that potential of going to play overseas will get

337
00:16:05,360 --> 00:16:06,040
Speaker 3: you working.

338
00:16:07,360 --> 00:16:11,240
Speaker 2: So you can live a great life over playing.

339
00:16:11,480 --> 00:16:14,840
Speaker 3: Oh you better believe it, my friend. Yeah, but I

340
00:16:14,920 --> 00:16:16,880
Speaker 3: think you'd rather stay here or play in the NFL

341
00:16:16,960 --> 00:16:19,000
Speaker 3: one or the other. He had the potential to hit

342
00:16:19,040 --> 00:16:22,280
Speaker 3: a game winning shot in Madison Square Garden, Steve Clifford

343
00:16:22,640 --> 00:16:25,040
Speaker 3: called the time out. He had the ball in his hands,

344
00:16:25,040 --> 00:16:27,880
Speaker 3: and instead Steve Clifford went to Gordon Hayward and the PJ.

345
00:16:28,080 --> 00:16:31,360
Speaker 3: Washington combo that went airball. We would have known Dennis

346
00:16:31,360 --> 00:16:37,360
Speaker 3: Smith's name game winning shot in MS. But he's playing

347
00:16:37,400 --> 00:16:39,120
Speaker 3: the good soldier right now, so yeah, good for him.

348
00:16:39,120 --> 00:16:42,520
Speaker 2: Great great stuff. I have also least surprising development the

349
00:16:42,600 --> 00:16:44,760
Speaker 2: King's starting zero and four after all of us were

350
00:16:44,800 --> 00:16:48,560
Speaker 2: on the King's bandwagon. Now you're the only person. I'll

351
00:16:48,600 --> 00:16:50,680
Speaker 2: give you that task. You're the only person that didn't

352
00:16:50,720 --> 00:16:53,640
Speaker 2: jump on the Kings prints and bandwagon everybody else man.

353
00:16:54,600 --> 00:16:56,280
Speaker 2: And three of these games have been at home, and

354
00:16:56,480 --> 00:16:58,760
Speaker 2: the defense was supposed to be this team's calling card

355
00:16:58,800 --> 00:17:01,280
Speaker 2: because you got Mike Brown there and out. And you know,

356
00:17:01,440 --> 00:17:04,399
Speaker 2: last night against the Grizzlies, for the third time in

357
00:17:04,480 --> 00:17:07,520
Speaker 2: four games, they allow their opponent to shoot over fifty

358
00:17:07,560 --> 00:17:11,840
Speaker 2: percent and from three and they just can't put together

359
00:17:11,880 --> 00:17:14,720
Speaker 2: a complete game, and this is the positives are. Fox

360
00:17:14,800 --> 00:17:18,280
Speaker 2: has been sensational for them. Keithan Murray's starting now is

361
00:17:18,359 --> 00:17:22,879
Speaker 2: first start solid eighteen and six. And uh, you know,

362
00:17:23,040 --> 00:17:24,480
Speaker 2: hurd her that is a good deal. I think, I

363
00:17:24,520 --> 00:17:26,600
Speaker 2: know he's hurt a little bit, but they just can't

364
00:17:26,640 --> 00:17:31,520
Speaker 2: still stop anybody. So it's just it's I mean, it's expected,

365
00:17:31,920 --> 00:17:35,360
Speaker 2: but it's still unfortunate. They like they're on four. They've

366
00:17:35,359 --> 00:17:37,760
Speaker 2: played some decent talent. I get that, but yeah, you

367
00:17:37,840 --> 00:17:39,520
Speaker 2: got to have a win here or two. You got

368
00:17:39,600 --> 00:17:41,760
Speaker 2: to pull out one of these and they haven't. The

369
00:17:41,920 --> 00:17:43,679
Speaker 2: Kinks not surprising in the.

370
00:17:43,720 --> 00:17:47,760
Speaker 4: Least feel so I know, I know you got to

371
00:17:47,800 --> 00:17:49,639
Speaker 4: talk about it in October though, yeah, get it in,

372
00:17:49,920 --> 00:17:52,200
Speaker 4: get it in. Talk about him again come March in

373
00:17:52,280 --> 00:17:56,200
Speaker 4: April when we're like, oh, Kings are really surprising people

374
00:17:56,560 --> 00:17:58,639
Speaker 4: the second half of the season, right, will do it?

375
00:17:58,760 --> 00:18:00,400
Speaker 4: We'll do They might make a run the play.

376
00:18:03,280 --> 00:18:07,720
Speaker 3: Okay, they have given us that Mike Brown video of

377
00:18:07,880 --> 00:18:11,160
Speaker 3: him chugging it up the floor. Yeah, that sprint. That's

378
00:18:11,160 --> 00:18:13,800
Speaker 3: the best thing that they've given us. The schedule is.

379
00:18:14,320 --> 00:18:16,639
Speaker 2: No they I know they have, but again, if like

380
00:18:16,680 --> 00:18:18,600
Speaker 2: you're going to be even a half decent team. You

381
00:18:18,640 --> 00:18:20,280
Speaker 2: got to come out with a w in one of these.

382
00:18:20,640 --> 00:18:23,040
Speaker 2: And they play they just can't put together four quarters.

383
00:18:23,080 --> 00:18:25,400
Speaker 2: I'm telling you, I've watched a lot of them. There

384
00:18:25,440 --> 00:18:28,400
Speaker 2: are great starts, there are great sections of a game

385
00:18:28,440 --> 00:18:30,600
Speaker 2: where they look like, Okay, this is a legit team,

386
00:18:30,640 --> 00:18:33,160
Speaker 2: and can't string it all together. Man, there's too many

387
00:18:33,200 --> 00:18:35,200
Speaker 2: runs they give up that there's like twelve runs happening.

388
00:18:35,200 --> 00:18:35,920
Speaker 2: You're like, damn it.

389
00:18:36,160 --> 00:18:38,520
Speaker 3: And the Miami Heat just got plowed by the Golden

390
00:18:38,520 --> 00:18:41,720
Speaker 3: State Warriors. They get the Miami Heat next on Saturday,

391
00:18:41,960 --> 00:18:43,920
Speaker 3: could easily be zero five, and they go for the

392
00:18:44,040 --> 00:18:46,200
Speaker 3: four game road trip on the East coast.

393
00:18:46,440 --> 00:18:47,760
Speaker 2: You know what they need to get out of the

394
00:18:48,320 --> 00:18:50,719
Speaker 2: get out of Sacramento. They can't win there. Get out

395
00:18:50,760 --> 00:18:52,719
Speaker 2: of the road. Hopefully they turn it around here.

396
00:18:52,800 --> 00:18:55,000
Speaker 3: They go Charlotte, that could be a win, but then

397
00:18:55,080 --> 00:18:58,040
Speaker 3: the Miami Orlando vaunted Florida that's not where good. And

398
00:18:58,040 --> 00:18:59,920
Speaker 3: then you get the Warriors. Actually they go three east,

399
00:19:00,119 --> 00:19:01,760
Speaker 3: so that's not easy.

400
00:19:01,880 --> 00:19:06,520
Speaker 2: Okay, Next question who deserves more attention? And I was

401
00:19:06,560 --> 00:19:08,840
Speaker 2: gonna go with Dennismith Junior here, but who else?

402
00:19:09,800 --> 00:19:13,960
Speaker 3: A little love for Santi Al Dama. What a name,

403
00:19:14,160 --> 00:19:18,760
Speaker 3: Santiago al Dama damn good name. Yeah, yeah, I don't

404
00:19:18,760 --> 00:19:21,600
Speaker 3: know if yeah, I don't know if I like santi

405
00:19:21,680 --> 00:19:25,120
Speaker 3: Aldam or Santiago Aldama, it's his full name. Both are good.

406
00:19:25,440 --> 00:19:27,720
Speaker 3: He's just come in and filled in the Jaron Jackson

407
00:19:27,920 --> 00:19:32,000
Speaker 3: junior role very well. Yeah. Now he's not overwhelmingly amazing.

408
00:19:32,080 --> 00:19:34,440
Speaker 3: His numbers are not great, but there was worries that

409
00:19:35,040 --> 00:19:37,520
Speaker 3: what are the Grizzlies going to do? Well? You insert

410
00:19:37,640 --> 00:19:42,360
Speaker 3: him and he's playing thirty minutes per game, so it's

411
00:19:42,680 --> 00:19:45,320
Speaker 3: more an innings eeter, I would say, but he's shown

412
00:19:45,440 --> 00:19:49,240
Speaker 3: talent from the three point arc in he can put

413
00:19:49,280 --> 00:19:51,040
Speaker 3: the ball in the hoop and a block and a

414
00:19:51,119 --> 00:19:54,200
Speaker 3: half per game, which is all you're asking of him.

415
00:19:54,680 --> 00:19:57,640
Speaker 3: He's a second year player's number thirty pick last year

416
00:19:58,640 --> 00:20:01,320
Speaker 3: out of Loyola, and he just he's just he's competent.

417
00:20:02,240 --> 00:20:05,280
Speaker 3: It's another one of those situations with the Grizzlies. You

418
00:20:05,359 --> 00:20:07,479
Speaker 3: don't know their names one through fifteen, but the guy

419
00:20:07,600 --> 00:20:11,119
Speaker 3: comes in and contributes. Along with the rotation of Steven

420
00:20:11,119 --> 00:20:13,800
Speaker 3: Adams and Brandon Clark back there, well, we thought Brandon.

421
00:20:13,520 --> 00:20:15,880
Speaker 2: Clark might start in place of Jackson.

422
00:20:15,920 --> 00:20:18,439
Speaker 3: But he's the backup five. This is good. It's kind

423
00:20:18,440 --> 00:20:21,440
Speaker 3: of old school with Taylor Jenkins Aldama, you're the four.

424
00:20:21,520 --> 00:20:23,640
Speaker 3: Jared Jackson Junior will come in and start for him,

425
00:20:23,680 --> 00:20:26,280
Speaker 3: and then Aldama will be the backup four. And now

426
00:20:26,800 --> 00:20:30,160
Speaker 3: you kind of know with him that when Jared Jackson

427
00:20:30,200 --> 00:20:31,720
Speaker 3: Junior comes back and you want to go Jared Jackson

428
00:20:31,800 --> 00:20:33,879
Speaker 3: Junior at the five, Aldama can play the four and

429
00:20:33,960 --> 00:20:35,480
Speaker 3: you still have a ton of size. So this is

430
00:20:35,800 --> 00:20:38,040
Speaker 3: this has helped going forth. This has helped just to

431
00:20:38,720 --> 00:20:41,120
Speaker 3: know their roster later on because they want to get

432
00:20:41,119 --> 00:20:43,600
Speaker 3: Adams off the floor and put Jared Jackson Junior at

433
00:20:43,600 --> 00:20:45,800
Speaker 3: the five. But you want size, you can have Santi

434
00:20:45,880 --> 00:20:47,800
Speaker 3: in beside him. So this has been This has been

435
00:20:47,840 --> 00:20:50,280
Speaker 3: good learning experience for them and they haven't missed a

436
00:20:50,320 --> 00:20:51,200
Speaker 3: beat there. Four and one.

437
00:20:51,680 --> 00:20:54,359
Speaker 2: This is a fun question for the basketball sickos. You know,

438
00:20:54,560 --> 00:20:56,960
Speaker 2: Dennis Smith, junr Aldama, Who do you have?

439
00:20:57,040 --> 00:20:58,480
Speaker 4: You want me to just say some good names the

440
00:20:58,640 --> 00:21:01,480
Speaker 4: guys who are doing good this season. Two Halliburton twenty

441
00:21:01,520 --> 00:21:03,800
Speaker 4: three points tennis. This is a game fifty forty ninety

442
00:21:03,840 --> 00:21:06,520
Speaker 4: from the field. I don't think anybody, I don't think

443
00:21:06,560 --> 00:21:09,240
Speaker 4: his name has been said on this podcast since we

444
00:21:09,359 --> 00:21:11,920
Speaker 4: started the season. When we talk Pacers, we're talking Matherin

445
00:21:12,119 --> 00:21:15,240
Speaker 4: basically only because we're like, well, yeah, Haliburton's putting up stats.

446
00:21:15,520 --> 00:21:17,600
Speaker 4: They got a cool back court zero and double zero.

447
00:21:17,680 --> 00:21:20,200
Speaker 2: We've talked way more about the ball boy slash man.

448
00:21:20,840 --> 00:21:22,760
Speaker 2: Definitely Pacers ur Turner than him.

449
00:21:22,800 --> 00:21:25,320
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's good, but that's a that's good for the

450
00:21:25,400 --> 00:21:28,680
Speaker 4: Pacers to see Halliburton taking on this much responsibility and

451
00:21:28,760 --> 00:21:31,879
Speaker 4: like looking like a number one guy because his style

452
00:21:31,920 --> 00:21:34,080
Speaker 4: of play maybe would lend itself to being a support

453
00:21:34,160 --> 00:21:37,000
Speaker 4: player or a really great second banana, but it looks

454
00:21:37,040 --> 00:21:39,040
Speaker 4: like you'd be the number one guy. Michael Porter Junior

455
00:21:39,160 --> 00:21:42,000
Speaker 4: also having a great season. Eighteen points per game, fifty

456
00:21:42,040 --> 00:21:45,160
Speaker 4: percent from the three point line, eight and makes He's

457
00:21:45,200 --> 00:21:48,680
Speaker 4: only being vested in my book by Boyan Bogdanovitch twenty

458
00:21:48,720 --> 00:21:51,480
Speaker 4: three points per game, third and three pointers made fifty

459
00:21:51,560 --> 00:21:54,520
Speaker 4: one percent from three. Honestly, probably doing a little bit

460
00:21:54,560 --> 00:21:57,399
Speaker 4: too much for the Detroit Pistons, Like he should not

461
00:21:57,520 --> 00:22:00,040
Speaker 4: be their best player, but he probably has been to start.

462
00:21:59,840 --> 00:22:01,720
Speaker 3: The Season's got a trade for that guy?

463
00:22:01,840 --> 00:22:04,359
Speaker 4: Yeah, exactly, He's he's on showcase right now. I do

464
00:22:04,480 --> 00:22:06,920
Speaker 4: believe or he just hangs around. It's not like he's

465
00:22:06,960 --> 00:22:09,920
Speaker 4: really causing him to win games. But that's true getting

466
00:22:09,920 --> 00:22:12,600
Speaker 4: buckets at the very least. Bull Bull talked about him

467
00:22:12,600 --> 00:22:15,440
Speaker 4: a little tiny bit. Ten points, six rebounds, sixty three percent,

468
00:22:15,720 --> 00:22:18,000
Speaker 4: able to stay on the floor for seventeen minutes a game.

469
00:22:18,320 --> 00:22:20,719
Speaker 4: That's huge for the Magic. He's maybe better than Mow

470
00:22:20,760 --> 00:22:23,640
Speaker 4: Meatball bomba tough to call the battle for the meatball

471
00:22:24,280 --> 00:22:27,560
Speaker 4: bowl Bull versus Mobamba. Whoever plays more minutes this season

472
00:22:27,600 --> 00:22:29,000
Speaker 4: gets to be the meatball of the Magic.

473
00:22:29,040 --> 00:22:31,040
Speaker 3: I like that. And final guy, I got a little

474
00:22:31,080 --> 00:22:31,879
Speaker 3: bowl as an award.

475
00:22:32,040 --> 00:22:35,720
Speaker 4: Yeah, like a golden meatball. We'll send it to him. Yeah, okay,

476
00:22:35,840 --> 00:22:39,080
Speaker 4: clip that, We'll send it. And then I would assume

477
00:22:39,600 --> 00:22:41,399
Speaker 4: he's having a great season for the Balls. Thirteen to

478
00:22:41,440 --> 00:22:43,480
Speaker 4: five and four to fifty one from the field, forty

479
00:22:43,520 --> 00:22:46,600
Speaker 4: five percent from three on four attempts. Basically given Chicago

480
00:22:46,680 --> 00:22:48,920
Speaker 4: what they're missing with Lonzo. He doesn't shoot the ball

481
00:22:49,160 --> 00:22:52,320
Speaker 4: as much, but he's playing with pace, he's playing defense,

482
00:22:52,600 --> 00:22:55,200
Speaker 4: and he stepped into the starting lineup as point guard

483
00:22:55,480 --> 00:22:56,960
Speaker 4: and the Balls really haven't missed a step.

484
00:22:57,280 --> 00:23:00,719
Speaker 2: Great list of guys who are some guys Sean here

485
00:23:00,760 --> 00:23:02,760
Speaker 2: in the stream team. I know he's well known, but

486
00:23:02,800 --> 00:23:05,320
Speaker 2: we got to say how Jeremy Grant has nearly flawlessly

487
00:23:05,400 --> 00:23:08,920
Speaker 2: transitioned into the Blazers lineup. That's a good one. He's

488
00:23:08,960 --> 00:23:12,119
Speaker 2: played great. You know, he's like, we love him in

489
00:23:12,200 --> 00:23:14,280
Speaker 2: this role sort of as the second maybe even the

490
00:23:14,320 --> 00:23:16,159
Speaker 2: third guy. He had the game winner against the Lakers,

491
00:23:16,160 --> 00:23:19,080
Speaker 2: which was crazy, like in traffic around the Bronze or

492
00:23:19,280 --> 00:23:22,640
Speaker 2: under Ady. He's been solid. The only other guy I'll name,

493
00:23:23,040 --> 00:23:24,600
Speaker 2: he was my pick to be the random guy to

494
00:23:24,640 --> 00:23:26,400
Speaker 2: go for fifty points in a game, and I'm feeling

495
00:23:26,440 --> 00:23:28,480
Speaker 2: pretty good about it with the way he's shooting the

496
00:23:28,560 --> 00:23:30,120
Speaker 2: three right now. It's Desmond Bean.

497
00:23:30,320 --> 00:23:30,800
Speaker 3: Oh yeah.

498
00:23:30,920 --> 00:23:32,760
Speaker 2: He started the season very slowly. He talked about his

499
00:23:32,920 --> 00:23:34,399
Speaker 2: legs weren't under him. You know, it was taking a

500
00:23:34,440 --> 00:23:36,120
Speaker 2: while to get into it. Over the last two games,

501
00:23:36,200 --> 00:23:40,359
Speaker 2: Desmond ban sixty nine points nice thirty eight in the

502
00:23:40,359 --> 00:23:43,000
Speaker 2: win versus the Nets, thirty one last night versus Sacramento.

503
00:23:43,600 --> 00:23:46,960
Speaker 2: Fourteen three pointers he's made this week, shooting seventy four

504
00:23:47,000 --> 00:23:50,080
Speaker 2: percent from deep. The guy is on fire. And I

505
00:23:50,359 --> 00:23:52,840
Speaker 2: always forget what Desmond made that He's only twenty four

506
00:23:52,920 --> 00:23:55,320
Speaker 2: years old. He just seems like a thirty two year

507
00:23:55,359 --> 00:23:57,560
Speaker 2: old guy to me, just like this guy is just

508
00:23:58,520 --> 00:24:00,560
Speaker 2: a rock in the locker room. He's teaching all the

509
00:24:00,600 --> 00:24:02,439
Speaker 2: young kids, you know, how to go about their business.

510
00:24:02,520 --> 00:24:06,680
Speaker 2: He's twenty four. I mean, so could he have a

511
00:24:06,720 --> 00:24:09,280
Speaker 2: fifty burger in him? Oh yeah, Dick, so yeah, feeling

512
00:24:09,359 --> 00:24:12,000
Speaker 2: really good about that one. So he's just been solid

513
00:24:12,040 --> 00:24:15,640
Speaker 2: as after a slow, slow start, contributing there to the Grizzlies. Great,

514
00:24:15,800 --> 00:24:16,320
Speaker 2: great start.

515
00:24:16,480 --> 00:24:18,400
Speaker 3: We've had a lot of fun this first week, I'd say,

516
00:24:18,560 --> 00:24:23,040
Speaker 3: naming guys like Bowl Bowl, Jock Landale, Nick Richards, Sure

517
00:24:24,200 --> 00:24:26,639
Speaker 3: Hollinger has a good list up on the Athletic of

518
00:24:26,800 --> 00:24:29,479
Speaker 3: under the radar guys. Yeah, we've been mentioning a lot

519
00:24:29,520 --> 00:24:32,320
Speaker 3: of these guys randomly on our show and it's been

520
00:24:32,440 --> 00:24:35,120
Speaker 3: love and Devin Vassell the Spurs too, has been absolutely balm.

521
00:24:35,280 --> 00:24:37,399
Speaker 3: I will say guy that we haven't mentioned because he

522
00:24:37,400 --> 00:24:42,080
Speaker 3: hasn't been overwhelmingly great, but I think Mobiley with the

523
00:24:42,600 --> 00:24:45,720
Speaker 3: Cavaliers same points per game as last year, but I

524
00:24:45,760 --> 00:24:48,000
Speaker 3: think his game is evolving a little bit more. There's

525
00:24:48,040 --> 00:24:51,359
Speaker 3: always the him versus Barnes, who is going to take

526
00:24:51,440 --> 00:24:55,080
Speaker 3: that next step. Everybody as Raptors fans. We know if

527
00:24:55,119 --> 00:24:56,440
Speaker 3: the Raptor is going to take that next level with

528
00:24:56,440 --> 00:24:58,760
Speaker 3: the current roster, Scottie Barnes got to become a superstar.

529
00:24:58,800 --> 00:25:00,880
Speaker 3: And I think Evan Mobley's that same guy with the Cavs,

530
00:25:00,920 --> 00:25:03,400
Speaker 3: and I think his game is evolving, it is looking good.

531
00:25:03,640 --> 00:25:06,160
Speaker 3: It's fun to get in second year player to see

532
00:25:06,200 --> 00:25:07,960
Speaker 3: that game of all because I do think he could

533
00:25:07,960 --> 00:25:11,000
Speaker 3: be a superstar, and I think he's getting more of that. Hey,

534
00:25:11,280 --> 00:25:13,119
Speaker 3: you got a guy on you, doesn't matter, you can

535
00:25:13,200 --> 00:25:15,160
Speaker 3: dribble past him even as a seven footer. He's getting

536
00:25:15,200 --> 00:25:17,280
Speaker 3: that in his game right now, even if the numbers

537
00:25:17,320 --> 00:25:19,760
Speaker 3: aren't telling you. So watch out for that. I'd say

538
00:25:19,760 --> 00:25:20,600
Speaker 3: the next few months.

539
00:25:20,480 --> 00:25:23,359
Speaker 2: Our next one here. We've been pretty positive pets here

540
00:25:23,359 --> 00:25:26,399
Speaker 2: early on in this podcast, So let's do one weekend.

541
00:25:26,480 --> 00:25:30,440
Speaker 2: Who's got the worst vibes? I feel like there's some

542
00:25:30,680 --> 00:25:31,720
Speaker 2: solid nominees here.

543
00:25:32,000 --> 00:25:33,840
Speaker 3: Yeah, I thought it would be the Signs. I was wrong.

544
00:25:34,119 --> 00:25:36,959
Speaker 3: Vibe and good vibes right now.

545
00:25:37,720 --> 00:25:40,240
Speaker 2: You know, there was some concern, what how will the Celtics,

546
00:25:40,480 --> 00:25:43,960
Speaker 2: you know, play under Missoula here with Noyadka. Totally fine.

547
00:25:44,200 --> 00:25:46,919
Speaker 2: Good vibes are okay, but who has the bat.

548
00:25:47,200 --> 00:25:50,479
Speaker 3: I know who it is. Well, it's really it's Phillyeah.

549
00:25:50,600 --> 00:25:53,120
Speaker 3: It's really to start, more so than the Lakers, who

550
00:25:53,119 --> 00:25:55,520
Speaker 3: obviously have bad vibes. But we know the Lakers aren't

551
00:25:55,520 --> 00:25:59,440
Speaker 3: going to be amazing Philly. We projected to be the

552
00:25:59,520 --> 00:26:03,440
Speaker 3: number one seed. And the frustrating part is they have

553
00:26:03,600 --> 00:26:07,560
Speaker 3: the talent that they're not vibing there. The effort isn't there.

554
00:26:07,640 --> 00:26:10,120
Speaker 3: They look like a lazy team. Yeah, and so that's

555
00:26:10,200 --> 00:26:13,919
Speaker 3: the that's the frustrating part. Got to put it on Embiid.

556
00:26:14,240 --> 00:26:17,159
Speaker 3: I think as far as not coming out there and

557
00:26:17,320 --> 00:26:19,840
Speaker 3: giving it all on the effort. I know we're going

558
00:26:19,880 --> 00:26:21,479
Speaker 3: to put it on Doc and all that, but your

559
00:26:21,520 --> 00:26:23,639
Speaker 3: best player has to be your best player. So I

560
00:26:24,119 --> 00:26:26,600
Speaker 3: go Embiid as the guy who should be getting them

561
00:26:27,280 --> 00:26:29,800
Speaker 3: to a three and two record. We're not asking much.

562
00:26:29,800 --> 00:26:30,440
Speaker 3: They're one and four.

563
00:26:30,800 --> 00:26:34,120
Speaker 2: Well, Doc rivers disc track going around Twitter. It's going

564
00:26:34,240 --> 00:26:37,600
Speaker 2: viral right now as we speak. Two minutes of bars

565
00:26:37,760 --> 00:26:38,200
Speaker 2: just ripping.

566
00:26:38,880 --> 00:26:40,399
Speaker 3: I saw you guys quoting the lines.

567
00:26:40,480 --> 00:26:47,240
Speaker 2: Oh look, it's amazing, too good, it really is. It's

568
00:26:47,560 --> 00:26:50,719
Speaker 2: seventy six ers is on my list of course. Well,

569
00:26:50,760 --> 00:26:52,919
Speaker 2: it's the crazy part is they have three players averaging

570
00:26:53,000 --> 00:26:56,240
Speaker 2: twenty points per game in Embiid, Hard and Maxi, and

571
00:26:56,359 --> 00:26:58,680
Speaker 2: they have a top ten offense because that's not the issue.

572
00:26:58,720 --> 00:27:02,000
Speaker 2: They shoot a bunch of free throws, but their defense

573
00:27:02,119 --> 00:27:06,439
Speaker 2: is it's embarrassingly bad. There is no effort. There are

574
00:27:06,440 --> 00:27:09,360
Speaker 2: a lot of clips going around of the Sixers, especially Embiid,

575
00:27:09,920 --> 00:27:13,639
Speaker 2: doing nothing, not giving a flying poop to quote tesst Millis,

576
00:27:15,040 --> 00:27:17,439
Speaker 2: and it's bad. It's bad, And you wonder how long

577
00:27:17,520 --> 00:27:19,080
Speaker 2: Doc's gonna be able to hold onto his job here.

578
00:27:19,680 --> 00:27:22,920
Speaker 4: Yeah, absolutely, he seems to be in the crosshairs, and

579
00:27:23,080 --> 00:27:25,600
Speaker 4: Steve Nash is obviously in the crosshairs as well. But

580
00:27:25,720 --> 00:27:27,639
Speaker 4: to me, the Nets vibes aren't that bad right now,

581
00:27:27,880 --> 00:27:30,960
Speaker 4: they're not. They seem to be pretty supportive of Ben Simmons. Obviously,

582
00:27:31,440 --> 00:27:35,040
Speaker 4: he hasn't looked great after sixteen months off. I believe

583
00:27:35,080 --> 00:27:38,040
Speaker 4: he made the nice steal. Oh you know, he did

584
00:27:38,119 --> 00:27:40,600
Speaker 4: make a nice play addition to Kevin Durant, but honestly

585
00:27:40,680 --> 00:27:43,280
Speaker 4: smart on Durant to keep running. He's like, somebody go

586
00:27:43,400 --> 00:27:46,280
Speaker 4: get that ball. But at least Ben Simmons made a play.

587
00:27:46,960 --> 00:27:49,320
Speaker 4: I don't know. Their vibes seem better now than they

588
00:27:49,320 --> 00:27:52,920
Speaker 4: were over the offseason, so good job by Steve Nash.

589
00:27:53,000 --> 00:27:55,879
Speaker 4: I suppose the team outside of the Sixers and Lakers

590
00:27:55,880 --> 00:27:57,440
Speaker 4: that I think has the worst vibes so far is

591
00:27:57,480 --> 00:27:59,960
Speaker 4: the Timberwolves. They just seem to be running into expectation

592
00:28:00,359 --> 00:28:02,879
Speaker 4: compared to last year. You know, they won in their

593
00:28:02,920 --> 00:28:06,080
Speaker 4: playing tournament. They went to play against the Grizzlies, had

594
00:28:06,119 --> 00:28:08,960
Speaker 4: a fun series, almost pulled off the upset there. They

595
00:28:09,040 --> 00:28:11,920
Speaker 4: made the huge trade for Gobert. Things have changed. You're

596
00:28:11,920 --> 00:28:13,600
Speaker 4: supposed to go out and win fifty games and have

597
00:28:13,680 --> 00:28:15,200
Speaker 4: one of the best defenses in the league, and that

598
00:28:15,359 --> 00:28:18,119
Speaker 4: has not been the case so far. Rudy Gobert is

599
00:28:18,320 --> 00:28:20,680
Speaker 4: always a critic of his teams. Like he tries to

600
00:28:20,720 --> 00:28:23,080
Speaker 4: say it jokingly. He tries to be like a good

601
00:28:23,119 --> 00:28:26,240
Speaker 4: guy about it, but he's still saying, you know, I'm joking.

602
00:28:26,480 --> 00:28:29,600
Speaker 4: I was just saying, we're like the best worst defensive team.

603
00:28:30,600 --> 00:28:34,560
Speaker 4: It's so funny how those guys never try hard. And

604
00:28:34,640 --> 00:28:36,920
Speaker 4: then Carl Anthony Towns, he just likes to put his

605
00:28:36,960 --> 00:28:39,320
Speaker 4: foot in his mouth. He's very Derek Rosie to me,

606
00:28:39,440 --> 00:28:42,880
Speaker 4: and like you're trying to say hit there you go,

607
00:28:43,200 --> 00:28:45,360
Speaker 4: leadership stuff and it just comes out and it's a

608
00:28:45,400 --> 00:28:47,320
Speaker 4: little bit word salid and what are you talking about?

609
00:28:47,560 --> 00:28:50,240
Speaker 4: And then Anthony Edwards is gonna be the leader of

610
00:28:50,320 --> 00:28:53,600
Speaker 4: that team eventually, but right now he just likes playing basketball,

611
00:28:53,720 --> 00:28:56,840
Speaker 4: like he's not driving the team forward. I don't think

612
00:28:56,880 --> 00:28:59,240
Speaker 4: he's probably trying to lead by example, but his example

613
00:28:59,360 --> 00:29:01,120
Speaker 4: is the guy who's too cool for school. So it's

614
00:29:01,160 --> 00:29:03,440
Speaker 4: been a weird start, I think for the timber Walls,

615
00:29:03,480 --> 00:29:04,600
Speaker 4: but I'm willing to give them a little bit.

616
00:29:04,600 --> 00:29:06,479
Speaker 2: But yeah, I think the funny thing with the Wolves

617
00:29:06,600 --> 00:29:08,920
Speaker 2: is all of that spot on. But they're three and

618
00:29:09,000 --> 00:29:11,160
Speaker 2: two and they feel like they're ower and five. Yes,

619
00:29:11,240 --> 00:29:13,720
Speaker 2: they have that vibe that like cloud over them, but

620
00:29:13,800 --> 00:29:15,880
Speaker 2: they're you know, they're fine. They're right in the mix,

621
00:29:16,000 --> 00:29:17,000
Speaker 2: you know, decent start.

622
00:29:17,600 --> 00:29:18,040
Speaker 3: Uh you know.

623
00:29:18,120 --> 00:29:20,120
Speaker 2: You look at the other big moves in the off season,

624
00:29:20,240 --> 00:29:22,360
Speaker 2: the Hawks getting to John Tay Murray. Well they're they're

625
00:29:22,440 --> 00:29:25,520
Speaker 2: three and one, okay, Cleveland three and one with Donovan

626
00:29:25,560 --> 00:29:28,160
Speaker 2: Mitchell and him balling out, So those are good starts,

627
00:29:28,200 --> 00:29:30,600
Speaker 2: and three and two it's like one more loss. It's

628
00:29:30,640 --> 00:29:33,240
Speaker 2: not the end of the world, but it is strange.

629
00:29:34,080 --> 00:29:35,640
Speaker 2: I gotta have Philly at the top of my list,

630
00:29:35,720 --> 00:29:37,920
Speaker 2: and You could make a case, of course for the Lakers,

631
00:29:38,720 --> 00:29:42,200
Speaker 2: which is just it's bad they did. Nobody can shoot

632
00:29:42,200 --> 00:29:43,640
Speaker 2: on their team, and that's never good.

633
00:29:43,760 --> 00:29:47,200
Speaker 3: But but I think it is good in that it's

634
00:29:47,280 --> 00:29:50,000
Speaker 3: gotta make Rob make it try. Yeah, the worst they are,

635
00:29:50,800 --> 00:29:53,560
Speaker 3: the worst they are. He's gonna put a hat in

636
00:29:53,680 --> 00:29:57,280
Speaker 3: hand to the Indiana Pacers or the San Antonio Spurs

637
00:29:57,400 --> 00:30:01,560
Speaker 3: and say, please, please, don't make me give you two

638
00:30:01,720 --> 00:30:03,160
Speaker 3: draft picks, just one.

639
00:30:03,320 --> 00:30:06,480
Speaker 2: Oh guess what. Your team's garbage and you've got Lebron

640
00:30:07,320 --> 00:30:09,920
Speaker 2: still playing at an elite level, an ad healthy. We're

641
00:30:09,960 --> 00:30:12,120
Speaker 2: gonna to ask for everything and you're gonna give it

642
00:30:12,160 --> 00:30:16,360
Speaker 2: to us. So yeah, uh, final one here one weekend

643
00:30:16,400 --> 00:30:19,680
Speaker 2: favorite highlight. What do you got what's been your favorite

644
00:30:19,720 --> 00:30:22,200
Speaker 2: play of you know, eight or nine nights of basketball.

645
00:30:22,920 --> 00:30:24,080
Speaker 4: Well, I don't have a single play.

646
00:30:24,240 --> 00:30:24,800
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, what do you do?

647
00:30:24,880 --> 00:30:26,560
Speaker 4: I've got six plays?

648
00:30:27,040 --> 00:30:27,640
Speaker 2: You got a moment?

649
00:30:27,720 --> 00:30:31,640
Speaker 4: Six plays? One man Anthroty Simons going off for twenty

650
00:30:31,680 --> 00:30:35,280
Speaker 4: two points in six minutes in the third quarter of

651
00:30:35,320 --> 00:30:37,680
Speaker 4: a game this week. I guess it's like the best

652
00:30:37,800 --> 00:30:40,200
Speaker 4: on fire moment we've had so far, where Lillard is

653
00:30:40,240 --> 00:30:42,720
Speaker 4: just trying to get the ball back to Simons every

654
00:30:42,800 --> 00:30:46,000
Speaker 4: time he can. Simons is hitting progressively harder and harder

655
00:30:46,120 --> 00:30:48,080
Speaker 4: three point shots, to the point where he's hitting on

656
00:30:48,160 --> 00:30:50,440
Speaker 4: Steph Curry. Two guys are on me lunging, I'm falling

657
00:30:50,480 --> 00:30:54,600
Speaker 4: over and it's still money. Obviously. The his teammates are

658
00:30:54,640 --> 00:30:56,480
Speaker 4: going crazy on the bench, and it was just so

659
00:30:56,640 --> 00:30:59,080
Speaker 4: cool to see Damian Lillard, a guy who's known to

660
00:30:59,160 --> 00:31:02,080
Speaker 4: get super super hi, realize that Simon's is going off

661
00:31:02,160 --> 00:31:04,280
Speaker 4: and we're running every play we possibly can for him.

662
00:31:04,320 --> 00:31:06,640
Speaker 4: He made his first six, did miss his seventh one,

663
00:31:06,680 --> 00:31:08,320
Speaker 4: which is too bad, but still twenty two points in

664
00:31:08,360 --> 00:31:08,840
Speaker 4: six minutes.

665
00:31:09,000 --> 00:31:09,320
Speaker 3: That's good.

666
00:31:09,400 --> 00:31:11,760
Speaker 2: Oh my goodness, he got the NBA jam treatment. That's right,

667
00:31:11,880 --> 00:31:13,640
Speaker 2: Jerome here on one of our shorts or one of

668
00:31:13,680 --> 00:31:15,880
Speaker 2: our clips that we put up. That's a great one.

669
00:31:16,720 --> 00:31:19,440
Speaker 2: What about you? You got a man catching fire? Or

670
00:31:19,440 --> 00:31:20,680
Speaker 2: do you gotta play? Yeah?

671
00:31:20,760 --> 00:31:23,240
Speaker 3: I think I'm just gonna go with our shorts feed,

672
00:31:23,720 --> 00:31:27,720
Speaker 3: our YouTube shorts feed overall. That's his highlight last highlights

673
00:31:27,760 --> 00:31:31,200
Speaker 3: for me. Listen, I can't pick anything outside of John Moran.

674
00:31:32,160 --> 00:31:33,120
Speaker 3: He's he's done it.

675
00:31:33,160 --> 00:31:34,840
Speaker 2: All, which was so which one would you go with?

676
00:31:35,040 --> 00:31:37,440
Speaker 2: The block on Jalen Green, The Alliop where he throws

677
00:31:37,480 --> 00:31:38,280
Speaker 2: it down with his left hand.

678
00:31:38,400 --> 00:31:41,400
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think the I think the alleyup. But he's

679
00:31:41,480 --> 00:31:44,400
Speaker 3: good for a two hander. He's good for a meeting

680
00:31:44,480 --> 00:31:48,560
Speaker 3: somebody in air and then dishing off, or meeting somebody

681
00:31:48,600 --> 00:31:51,720
Speaker 3: in air and scoring, or yet behind the back. He's

682
00:31:51,760 --> 00:31:53,920
Speaker 3: been a total package. He's been he's been at all.

683
00:31:54,680 --> 00:31:58,800
Speaker 2: I'll go with uh, Ben Carro's dunk on Corey Joseph

684
00:31:59,120 --> 00:32:01,760
Speaker 2: to like base start the season. This is his first game,

685
00:32:01,840 --> 00:32:03,720
Speaker 2: right if I had that right? Oh yeah, where Corey

686
00:32:03,800 --> 00:32:06,960
Speaker 2: Joseph tries to take the charge and uh, Pello just

687
00:32:07,040 --> 00:32:10,080
Speaker 2: goes way up and over them, and uh, you know

688
00:32:10,480 --> 00:32:13,320
Speaker 2: this guy as the number one pick. I guess you

689
00:32:13,480 --> 00:32:16,200
Speaker 2: shouldn't be surprised. But the numbers he's putting up for

690
00:32:16,480 --> 00:32:18,200
Speaker 2: for a magic team, Yeah, Okay, they're not winning a

691
00:32:18,240 --> 00:32:19,960
Speaker 2: lot of games. Have they even won one yet? No,

692
00:32:20,320 --> 00:32:22,240
Speaker 2: But he's just been unreal.

693
00:32:22,680 --> 00:32:22,880
Speaker 3: Yeah.

694
00:32:22,960 --> 00:32:26,920
Speaker 2: Like it's like like I don't follow college closely, so

695
00:32:27,040 --> 00:32:28,800
Speaker 2: I you know, of course we have an idea who

696
00:32:28,840 --> 00:32:30,560
Speaker 2: they are, who's gonna be the top picks. You see

697
00:32:30,600 --> 00:32:33,000
Speaker 2: the highlights, But I'm always like, I gotta see that

698
00:32:33,280 --> 00:32:38,120
Speaker 2: guy around NBA, players around NBA athletes, then I'll you know,

699
00:32:38,360 --> 00:32:41,800
Speaker 2: make my uh you know, my for my thoughts on

700
00:32:41,880 --> 00:32:43,719
Speaker 2: how good they could be or wherever they're gonna their

701
00:32:43,760 --> 00:32:45,440
Speaker 2: trajectory is gonna go. And it's like it didn't take

702
00:32:45,480 --> 00:32:47,440
Speaker 2: long when you see this guy and you're like, holy crap,

703
00:32:47,480 --> 00:32:50,160
Speaker 2: I couldn't believe how fast he was, how aggressive he is,

704
00:32:50,280 --> 00:32:54,520
Speaker 2: but not push or forcing things total package. The numbers

705
00:32:54,560 --> 00:32:57,040
Speaker 2: are unreal as we've gone over like where he's just

706
00:32:57,160 --> 00:33:00,560
Speaker 2: like already an automatic twenty. And you know, once the

707
00:33:00,600 --> 00:33:03,120
Speaker 2: winds start catching up to this team in the in

708
00:33:03,160 --> 00:33:06,200
Speaker 2: the coming years, guys, you're building your team around him,

709
00:33:06,200 --> 00:33:07,920
Speaker 2: is what I'm getting at here. He's awesome And that

710
00:33:08,040 --> 00:33:09,400
Speaker 2: was a hell of a dunk to start a career.

711
00:33:09,600 --> 00:33:13,120
Speaker 4: Very cool dunk, dastardly charged take by Corey Jason.

712
00:33:13,680 --> 00:33:18,120
Speaker 2: Shameful stuff, but thank you. I guess if you're gonna

713
00:33:18,160 --> 00:33:19,840
Speaker 2: do that, make sure your heels are on the line.

714
00:33:19,920 --> 00:33:21,000
Speaker 4: Yeah, make sure your heels are.

715
00:33:21,600 --> 00:33:23,440
Speaker 3: And he wasn't a lock as the number one pick

716
00:33:23,520 --> 00:33:26,080
Speaker 3: if we remember just a few months ago. And obviously

717
00:33:26,200 --> 00:33:30,520
Speaker 3: Chet Holmgren's injury changes the sort of the picture currently

718
00:33:30,840 --> 00:33:32,960
Speaker 3: because Chet I'm sure would be great with Okay.

719
00:33:32,720 --> 00:33:36,840
Speaker 2: See Jabari Smith was in the and it's been solid.

720
00:33:36,920 --> 00:33:40,040
Speaker 2: He's been okay, all the rookies have impressed, but this

721
00:33:40,200 --> 00:33:40,840
Speaker 2: is next level.

722
00:33:40,920 --> 00:33:44,640
Speaker 3: No Peb. I have not been Peb. He's clearly running away.

723
00:33:44,480 --> 00:33:47,280
Speaker 2: With Rookie of the Year peanut butter, Pello big Carol.

724
00:33:47,520 --> 00:33:48,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, ok yea yeah.

725
00:33:50,120 --> 00:33:55,080
Speaker 2: I think you're the only person calling him peebs about absolutely.

726
00:33:54,560 --> 00:33:57,520
Speaker 3: The only person calling him that. But I just look

727
00:33:57,600 --> 00:34:01,720
Speaker 3: at Trey's Patagonia fleece. Yeah, and it's a light peb

728
00:34:02,840 --> 00:34:05,080
Speaker 3: on camera. It doesn't even look like but I mean

729
00:34:05,120 --> 00:34:10,760
Speaker 3: it's the color of meal. Yeah. Okay, whatever, I put

730
00:34:10,800 --> 00:34:14,360
Speaker 3: peanut butter in my oatmeal. Start my day for you.

731
00:34:14,840 --> 00:34:18,160
Speaker 2: All right, let's take uh, let's take our first break.

732

Speaker 2: talking m vps and surprises and worst vibes and highlights

734
00:34:24,760 --> 00:34:27,160
Speaker 2: and and someone maybe under the radar that deserves a

735
00:34:27,200 --> 00:34:30,120
Speaker 2: little more attention. When we come back, we've got some news,

736

Speaker 2: some NBA news and Worst of the Week nominees. Don't

741
00:34:44,920 --> 00:34:46,560
Speaker 2: Got some news before we get to Worse of the Week.

742
00:34:46,880 --> 00:34:50,520
Speaker 2: Damian Lillard guys out at least one to two weeks

743
00:34:51,280 --> 00:34:53,960
Speaker 2: due to his calf and we talked about it the

744
00:34:54,000 --> 00:34:56,960
Speaker 2: other night and postgame interviews Lillard he seemed to downplay

745
00:34:57,760 --> 00:35:01,040
Speaker 2: the seriousness of the injury that he leave the other night.

746
00:35:01,880 --> 00:35:05,799
Speaker 2: But they're gonna play it safe and he misses one

747
00:35:05,920 --> 00:35:07,680
Speaker 2: or two weeks here if he misses just one week,

748
00:35:08,280 --> 00:35:10,399
Speaker 2: you might miss just one game because of the weird

749
00:35:10,440 --> 00:35:13,000
Speaker 2: Blazer schedule. Yeah, but there's that two weeks in there

750
00:35:13,160 --> 00:35:16,160
Speaker 2: and the reevaluated. You never really know any thoughts on this.

751
00:35:17,040 --> 00:35:21,120
Speaker 3: Well, yeah, they don't play until Wednesday after tonight, which

752
00:35:21,160 --> 00:35:23,440
Speaker 3: he was gonna sit out no matter what. But he

753
00:35:23,520 --> 00:35:25,319
Speaker 3: did wake up on the game day with a little

754
00:35:25,360 --> 00:35:27,560
Speaker 3: bit of calf tightness, as Jason Quick wrote about on

755
00:35:27,600 --> 00:35:30,800
Speaker 3: The Athletic, he jumped in the ice bath and tried

756
00:35:30,880 --> 00:35:32,439
Speaker 3: to lock it up. But he did go and play

757
00:35:32,520 --> 00:35:34,680
Speaker 3: that night and did come out and said he would

758
00:35:34,680 --> 00:35:36,439
Speaker 3: have gone back in if it was a playoff game.

759
00:35:36,560 --> 00:35:39,040
Speaker 3: So you know, you can do a little hindsight. Maybe

760
00:35:39,040 --> 00:35:42,399
Speaker 3: he shouldn't have played, But the fact is he didn't play.

761
00:35:42,400 --> 00:35:43,640
Speaker 3: At the end of the game, it could have been

762
00:35:43,680 --> 00:35:46,240
Speaker 3: a lot worse, it sure seems like. And the schedule

763
00:35:46,400 --> 00:35:49,000
Speaker 3: is quite kind to the Blazers here.

764
00:35:49,239 --> 00:35:53,640
Speaker 2: So but this is a small little a little damper

765
00:35:53,680 --> 00:35:56,520
Speaker 2: on an awesome start to the Blazer Sea small little damper, yeah,

766
00:35:56,640 --> 00:35:58,960
Speaker 2: especially because if he woke up with soreness and then

767
00:35:59,000 --> 00:36:01,120
Speaker 2: thought he could play through, tried to play through it

768
00:36:01,239 --> 00:36:02,640
Speaker 2: and got actually hurt.

769
00:36:03,400 --> 00:36:05,520
Speaker 4: Not a great start to the beginning of the season.

770
00:36:05,600 --> 00:36:07,920
Speaker 4: Since you got another seventy seven games coming up. The

771
00:36:07,960 --> 00:36:10,080
Speaker 4: schedule is nice right now. They got Friday and Wednesday,

772
00:36:10,160 --> 00:36:12,600
Speaker 4: like you guys are saying. But if he misses more,

773
00:36:13,280 --> 00:36:15,359
Speaker 4: the Blazers are then going on a five game road trip.

774
00:36:15,840 --> 00:36:17,040
Speaker 4: Would they hold him out of an.

775
00:36:17,120 --> 00:36:17,919
Speaker 3: Entire road trip?

776
00:36:18,000 --> 00:36:21,399
Speaker 4: They would need him for these games Sons, Sons, Heat, Hornets, Okay,

777
00:36:21,600 --> 00:36:24,960
Speaker 4: Pelicans and Mavericks. Wow, some really solid teams all on

778
00:36:25,000 --> 00:36:28,280
Speaker 4: the road. You obviously want Damian Lillard there. So hopefully

779
00:36:28,320 --> 00:36:32,040
Speaker 4: it's a little precautionary measure here and he hopefully is

780
00:36:32,080 --> 00:36:34,239
Speaker 4: able to come back for the road trip. Would kind

781
00:36:34,280 --> 00:36:36,759
Speaker 4: of be my goal if I was Lillard and the Blazers.

782
00:36:37,200 --> 00:36:39,000
Speaker 4: But if it lingers, or if this is the kind

783
00:36:39,000 --> 00:36:40,719
Speaker 4: of thing that's going to be recurring throughout the year,

784
00:36:40,800 --> 00:36:41,320
Speaker 4: that's a problem.

785
00:36:41,440 --> 00:36:43,279
Speaker 2: Yeah, And we said it there when we were talking

786
00:36:43,280 --> 00:36:46,040
Speaker 2: about MVPs, you know, one weekend he had pulled up

787
00:36:46,040 --> 00:36:48,160
Speaker 2: a seat. He was he was a part of that

788
00:36:48,280 --> 00:36:50,839
Speaker 2: conversation at the MVP table. Thirty one points per game,

789
00:36:50,920 --> 00:36:53,359
Speaker 2: five boards, five assists in thirty five minutes per game.

790
00:36:53,400 --> 00:36:56,719
Speaker 2: And then the shooting percentages fifty basically fifty percent from

791
00:36:56,719 --> 00:36:59,200
Speaker 2: the field and basically forty percent from three And if

792
00:36:59,239 --> 00:37:02,920
Speaker 2: you remember, those are averages well above last year's averages

793
00:37:02,960 --> 00:37:06,080
Speaker 2: for Damian Lillard, you know, prior to him finally shutting

794
00:37:06,120 --> 00:37:06,399
Speaker 2: it down.

795
00:37:06,520 --> 00:37:09,000
Speaker 3: So and getting guys involved, that's been my favorite. At

796
00:37:09,000 --> 00:37:12,239
Speaker 3: the end of the game, he said, Anthony Simons, Yes, sir,

797
00:37:12,560 --> 00:37:15,440
Speaker 3: hit him with that hook shot, a little floater, a

798
00:37:15,480 --> 00:37:18,840
Speaker 3: little something something and Jeremy Grant and it's all you

799
00:37:18,960 --> 00:37:20,759
Speaker 3: as well. So that's what I like about it. It's

800
00:37:20,760 --> 00:37:22,279
Speaker 3: a it's a team effort going on right there.

801
00:37:22,360 --> 00:37:24,560
Speaker 2: Hey, come on, Blazers, just keep playing a little defense

802
00:37:24,600 --> 00:37:25,560
Speaker 2: and you'll give yourself a chance.

803
00:37:25,600 --> 00:37:27,759
Speaker 3: And they got the rockets on Friday, right and So

804
00:37:27,960 --> 00:37:32,719
Speaker 3: that's yeah, shuit, no gimme, No gimmes in this league.

805
00:37:32,920 --> 00:37:37,080
Speaker 2: Absolutely not other injury news, This one sucks. Wizard's back

806
00:37:37,120 --> 00:37:40,160
Speaker 2: up point guard Delon Wright will be sidelined indefinitely with

807
00:37:40,280 --> 00:37:43,880
Speaker 2: a grade to right hamstring strain. Woes was throwing I

808
00:37:43,920 --> 00:37:46,680
Speaker 2: think six to eight weeks on it. He's gonna be

809
00:37:46,719 --> 00:37:49,200
Speaker 2: reevaluated in a couple of weeks, that's where we're getting at.

810
00:37:49,200 --> 00:37:50,560
Speaker 2: But he's gonna miss some time here. This is a

811
00:37:50,600 --> 00:37:53,359
Speaker 2: guy the Wizard signed to a two year, sixteen million

812
00:37:53,400 --> 00:37:55,680
Speaker 2: dollars contractor in the off season, hoping that he would

813
00:37:55,719 --> 00:37:58,719
Speaker 2: improve the perimeter defense, and my god, was he ever.

814
00:37:59,040 --> 00:38:01,279
Speaker 2: I just talked about the other where he came in

815
00:38:01,360 --> 00:38:03,320
Speaker 2: and sort of changed that game for the Wizards. You

816
00:38:03,400 --> 00:38:05,120
Speaker 2: know he does. He's not lighting up the box score,

817
00:38:05,200 --> 00:38:09,040
Speaker 2: but steals and a block and deflections and making life

818
00:38:09,080 --> 00:38:12,840
Speaker 2: difficult for any of the opponents of perimeter opponents. So

819
00:38:13,600 --> 00:38:15,839
Speaker 2: this sucks. You know, you're hoping for a relatively fast

820
00:38:15,920 --> 00:38:19,200
Speaker 2: and full recovery here, but I know it's a backup

821
00:38:19,239 --> 00:38:21,960
Speaker 2: point guard, but they will miss him. He was playing

822
00:38:22,360 --> 00:38:24,920
Speaker 2: a really, really solid twenty to twenty five minutes for

823
00:38:24,960 --> 00:38:26,000
Speaker 2: the Wizards early in the season.

824
00:38:26,719 --> 00:38:30,640
Speaker 3: It's horrendous actually for this Wizard's team. It's just bad.

825
00:38:30,719 --> 00:38:34,000
Speaker 3: It's a bad fit. Beside Bradley Beal, they got a

826
00:38:34,080 --> 00:38:38,200
Speaker 3: lot stronger this offseason with the point guard position. They

827
00:38:38,239 --> 00:38:42,040
Speaker 3: were starring Howll Netto beside Bradley Beal, and now with

828
00:38:42,200 --> 00:38:44,600
Speaker 3: the depth of Monte Morris and then Delanne Wright, and

829
00:38:44,640 --> 00:38:47,160
Speaker 3: you have the option of going, you know, three guards

830
00:38:47,360 --> 00:38:50,080
Speaker 3: at times, or going with a really great defender beside

831
00:38:50,080 --> 00:38:53,120
Speaker 3: Bradley Beal at times. Yeah, this is this is bad

832
00:38:53,200 --> 00:38:56,080
Speaker 3: for them because they can mix a match Ovidian the

833
00:38:56,120 --> 00:38:58,600
Speaker 3: starting lineup. Are you going with a less great defender

834
00:38:58,680 --> 00:39:01,120
Speaker 3: and Ruyetta Murray? Interesting? This has been a really good

835
00:39:01,120 --> 00:39:01,840
Speaker 3: start for the Wizards.

836
00:39:01,920 --> 00:39:04,320
Speaker 2: Any thoughts on right here? Missing? I mean could be

837
00:39:04,440 --> 00:39:05,080
Speaker 2: a month or two.

838
00:39:05,520 --> 00:39:08,200
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's too bad. They're fifth in defense right now,

839
00:39:08,239 --> 00:39:10,440
Speaker 4: which this is not the fifth best defensive team in

840
00:39:10,480 --> 00:39:14,239
Speaker 4: the league, but certainly Delon Wright has been part of that.

841
00:39:14,400 --> 00:39:16,320
Speaker 4: I think they'll be fine though he is their backup

842
00:39:16,360 --> 00:39:18,839
Speaker 4: point guard. They drafted a guard and Johnny Davis did

843
00:39:18,880 --> 00:39:20,480
Speaker 4: not have a great start, but at least he'll get

844
00:39:20,480 --> 00:39:22,560
Speaker 4: a taste here. And they still got their starting point

845
00:39:22,560 --> 00:39:26,359
Speaker 4: guard in Monte Morris, So yeah, I mean it sucks

846
00:39:26,400 --> 00:39:29,000
Speaker 4: because he brings the energy in the defense off the bench,

847
00:39:29,200 --> 00:39:33,120
Speaker 4: but defensive energy early in the season, that's what the

848
00:39:33,120 --> 00:39:35,040
Speaker 4: Wizards are best at. You know, they try hard from

849
00:39:35,040 --> 00:39:36,440
Speaker 4: the beginning of the season. So I think they will

850
00:39:36,480 --> 00:39:38,840
Speaker 4: be able to survive. Get some more Will Barton in

851
00:39:38,880 --> 00:39:41,560
Speaker 4: your life as well, so I assume and Bradley Beal

852
00:39:41,600 --> 00:39:43,440
Speaker 4: handles the ball the time for this team anyway, so

853
00:39:43,719 --> 00:39:44,520
Speaker 4: they will survive.

854
00:39:44,680 --> 00:39:47,279
Speaker 2: This final headline here, I think I saw Trey you

855
00:39:47,360 --> 00:39:49,840
Speaker 2: tweeting about this, but the NBA app is going to

856
00:39:49,960 --> 00:39:54,680
Speaker 2: stream all of Victor when Mayama's games for free over

857
00:39:54,719 --> 00:39:56,880
Speaker 2: there in France. You're pumped.

858
00:39:58,120 --> 00:40:01,000
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, exactly. I'm sure I will watch one of these,

859
00:40:02,440 --> 00:40:03,879
Speaker 4: ain't gonna watch all of them. But I just think

860
00:40:03,880 --> 00:40:06,040
Speaker 4: it's very funny that the league is trying to clamp

861
00:40:06,120 --> 00:40:09,839
Speaker 4: down on tanking while also putting the person that every

862
00:40:09,880 --> 00:40:12,280
Speaker 4: team is tanking for on the app to watch.

863
00:40:12,880 --> 00:40:17,839
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, and they're dipping right there. Yeah.

864
00:40:18,120 --> 00:40:21,680
Speaker 3: They're also trying to clamp down on all those illegal streamers,

865
00:40:21,880 --> 00:40:24,480
Speaker 3: and they're trying to get legal. They're trying to beat

866
00:40:24,600 --> 00:40:28,080
Speaker 3: they knock down the league pass price to like fifty

867
00:40:28,160 --> 00:40:30,880
Speaker 3: percent off, and now they're trying to beat you to

868
00:40:30,960 --> 00:40:33,879
Speaker 3: the streamers. But I'm a little confused by how many

869
00:40:33,880 --> 00:40:36,880
Speaker 3: games they play in France because on the list on

870
00:40:37,080 --> 00:40:40,080
Speaker 3: NBA dot com you said you mentioned they're showing every game.

871
00:40:40,680 --> 00:40:44,080
Speaker 3: Is every game for this team? Four games? There's four

872
00:40:44,200 --> 00:40:46,359
Speaker 3: games listed and then an All Star game and then

873
00:40:46,440 --> 00:40:50,920
Speaker 3: the Leader Cup whatever that. I'm I'm not sure games. See.

874
00:40:50,960 --> 00:40:53,919
Speaker 2: I thought it was the opposite when you read sort

875
00:40:53,920 --> 00:40:56,279
Speaker 2: of the press release I keep forgetting the team is

876
00:40:56,360 --> 00:41:02,319
Speaker 2: called Metropolitan ninety two and it like Metropolitan Metropolitans, which

877
00:41:02,360 --> 00:41:04,920
Speaker 2: I thought ended there ninety two games. I was like,

878
00:41:05,000 --> 00:41:06,960
Speaker 2: holy crab, they played ninety two games.

879
00:41:06,760 --> 00:41:10,759
Speaker 3: But they're showing the Mets. Yeah, I'm confused how many

880
00:41:10,800 --> 00:41:12,200
Speaker 3: games they play, But yeah, it's uh.

881
00:41:12,520 --> 00:41:14,640
Speaker 4: They got a lot of games. It says full streaming

882
00:41:14,719 --> 00:41:16,920
Speaker 4: schedule will be updated at a later date, so they're

883
00:41:16,960 --> 00:41:20,320
Speaker 4: just gonna tack them on here, especially if they're getting visibility.

884
00:41:20,480 --> 00:41:23,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, these will probably do pretty good numbers.

885
00:41:23,640 --> 00:41:26,840
Speaker 4: I would say it'll be weird if there's people watching

886
00:41:26,960 --> 00:41:30,960
Speaker 4: this more than watching NBA games, which I think is possible.

887
00:41:30,960 --> 00:41:32,799
Speaker 2: I wonder what the timing is with these games. Yeah,

888
00:41:32,840 --> 00:41:33,239
Speaker 2: we'll see.

889
00:41:33,840 --> 00:41:36,080
Speaker 4: Okay. These are mostly during the afternoon two pm, three

890
00:41:36,120 --> 00:41:36,600
Speaker 4: pm East.

891
00:41:36,640 --> 00:41:39,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, because of the time difference. There you go afternoon basketball.

892

Speaker 2: You guys want to live stream them.

893
00:41:41,480 --> 00:41:44,240

Speaker 2: Okay, let's get to Worst of the Week, Ladies and gentlemen,

907
00:42:15,120 --> 00:42:16,680
Speaker 2: the Worst of the Week.

908
00:42:18,640 --> 00:42:22,160
Speaker 3: Four nominees for Worst of the Week. You out there

909
00:42:22,200 --> 00:42:24,759
Speaker 3: watching live on YouTube, you fellas in the studio or

910
00:42:24,920 --> 00:42:28,319
Speaker 3: anyone listening after the fact, hit us up. Let us

911
00:42:28,400 --> 00:42:31,160
Speaker 3: know who is the worst nominee. We've got four again.

912
00:42:31,400 --> 00:42:38,279
Speaker 3: Number one the Toronto Raptors Twitter account going at him. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,

913
00:42:38,480 --> 00:42:41,800
Speaker 3: because after a game against the Heat, the Raptors posted

914
00:42:41,840 --> 00:42:44,120
Speaker 3: a video of the Fellows working out.

915
00:42:44,560 --> 00:42:46,400
Speaker 2: No, no, you never do that.

916
00:42:46,800 --> 00:42:48,960
Speaker 3: The Fellas all right, so they're getting it on. They're

917
00:42:48,960 --> 00:42:50,920
Speaker 3: getting it on in the workout room. Yeah, turn a

918
00:42:51,000 --> 00:42:54,920
Speaker 3: light on after the game. They're working out. But they

919
00:42:55,080 --> 00:42:58,840
Speaker 3: got bullied by Raptor fans because we know the story

920
00:42:59,080 --> 00:43:04,520
Speaker 3: behind the Phoenix Sun's working out. After all, this is

921
00:43:04,560 --> 00:43:07,719
Speaker 3: a great video. They got bullied into taking it down

922
00:43:07,800 --> 00:43:13,400
Speaker 3: because Raptors fans didn't want another Sun situation where they

923
00:43:13,480 --> 00:43:15,840
Speaker 3: get pounded by fifty at the end of the season.

924
00:43:16,560 --> 00:43:21,200
Speaker 3: The Suns had a good year. Yeah, so b b

925
00:43:21,440 --> 00:43:24,960
Speaker 3: the new Sons like, who cares if if if you,

926
00:43:25,200 --> 00:43:27,959
Speaker 3: let's say, the Raptors put up these workout videos. Again,

927
00:43:28,000 --> 00:43:29,479
Speaker 3: they were pressured by Raptors fans.

928
00:43:29,560 --> 00:43:30,239
Speaker 2: They took it down.

929
00:43:30,360 --> 00:43:32,200
Speaker 3: They had to take it down. And what happened was

930
00:43:32,360 --> 00:43:34,840
Speaker 3: JD we have the photo of they just tweeted happy,

931
00:43:36,120 --> 00:43:38,320
Speaker 3: so they took it. So they took it down and

932
00:43:38,400 --> 00:43:41,200
Speaker 3: then they said happy question mark. They got pressured. This

933
00:43:41,440 --> 00:43:47,120
Speaker 3: cancel cultured is ball. It is absolute. So everyone, no

934
00:43:47,239 --> 00:43:48,960
Speaker 3: matter what, if you're an NBA fan and you know

935
00:43:49,120 --> 00:43:52,200
Speaker 3: this story, a team put up their workout videos, then

936
00:43:52,239 --> 00:43:54,239
Speaker 3: they fell apart in the playoffs, they lost by fifty

937
00:43:54,320 --> 00:43:56,960
Speaker 3: at home to the Mavericks. Eventually, that's the story that

938
00:43:57,080 --> 00:43:59,520
Speaker 3: you know, the Phoenix stuns story. Yeah, no, one's gonna

939
00:43:59,560 --> 00:44:03,040
Speaker 3: remember this Raptor story even if they get plout, even

940
00:44:03,080 --> 00:44:04,040
Speaker 3: if they don't make the playoff.

941
00:44:04,080 --> 00:44:05,920
Speaker 2: Raptors fans are saying, why why test it?

942
00:44:06,000 --> 00:44:06,160
Speaker 3: Man?

943
00:44:06,280 --> 00:44:08,640
Speaker 2: Why test this working theory that as soon as you

944
00:44:08,680 --> 00:44:10,720
Speaker 2: put up a workout video, your team's just gonna crumble.

945
00:44:10,719 --> 00:44:12,600
Speaker 2: You're gonna lose my fifty, the lost.

946
00:44:12,640 --> 00:44:15,000
Speaker 3: Down the Raps lost in the first round last year.

947
00:44:15,560 --> 00:44:16,319
Speaker 2: Talking about this year?

948
00:44:16,480 --> 00:44:19,120
Speaker 3: Okay, yeah, but what's it about the future? But what

949
00:44:19,480 --> 00:44:21,320
Speaker 3: is it gonna curse them for the Yes, that's.

950
00:44:21,200 --> 00:44:22,799
Speaker 2: What people are worried about. That's exactly what.

951
00:44:22,800 --> 00:44:23,200
Speaker 4: The word is.

952
00:44:23,280 --> 00:44:26,000
Speaker 3: I'm just saying spooky season saying the mountain top ain't

953
00:44:26,040 --> 00:44:29,680
Speaker 3: that high? Last year? Was a first round exit? It wasn't.

954
00:44:30,400 --> 00:44:32,759
Speaker 2: Yeah, hold on the Also, the other counter is it's

955
00:44:32,920 --> 00:44:36,640
Speaker 2: corny af who cares guys that work out? Yeah, we

956
00:44:36,680 --> 00:44:39,239
Speaker 2: don't need to work out, We don't need to see them.

957
00:44:40,280 --> 00:44:41,920
Speaker 3: What what what do you want to see? What do

958
00:44:41,960 --> 00:44:45,279
Speaker 3: you want your dot me. I love my Twitter, my

959
00:44:45,400 --> 00:44:47,840
Speaker 3: rap my and my team Twitter account. I want to

960
00:44:47,880 --> 00:44:48,560
Speaker 3: see nothing.

961
00:44:48,840 --> 00:44:53,400
Speaker 2: I mean, Raptors Twitter account is amazing. It's one of

962
00:44:53,440 --> 00:44:55,600
Speaker 2: the better ones, I think from all the team accounts.

963
00:44:55,640 --> 00:44:57,719
Speaker 2: But I think the the idea is like, we don't

964
00:44:57,760 --> 00:44:59,439
Speaker 2: need to see a guy that had a rough game

965
00:44:59,520 --> 00:45:02,120
Speaker 2: in the floor shooting around after the game. That's a

966
00:45:02,160 --> 00:45:04,080
Speaker 2: classic one that we always see. We don't need to

967
00:45:04,120 --> 00:45:06,480
Speaker 2: see them. You know, lifting weights, Yes, you do.

968
00:45:07,080 --> 00:45:09,680
Speaker 3: I want I want more lifting weight videos. They don't

969
00:45:09,680 --> 00:45:13,719
Speaker 3: show it enough. They never show guys. Show me some

970
00:45:13,840 --> 00:45:18,600
Speaker 3: exercise bands, show me the guys getting flexible. You're into it,

971
00:45:19,080 --> 00:45:23,000
Speaker 3: I'm into working out. Happy, okay?

972
00:45:23,160 --> 00:45:23,440
Speaker 4: Happy?

973
00:45:23,640 --> 00:45:24,200
Speaker 3: Question mark.

974
00:45:24,360 --> 00:45:26,359
Speaker 2: So you are upset that they took it down, right,

975
00:45:26,520 --> 00:45:27,200
Speaker 2: that's what you're.

976
00:45:27,480 --> 00:45:32,080
Speaker 3: I just don't I just don't understand. What why? What's

977
00:45:32,120 --> 00:45:34,439
Speaker 3: the point? We're scared that it's gonna curse us? Yeah

978
00:45:34,600 --> 00:45:38,080
Speaker 3: again again? Even if even if we become the worst

979
00:45:38,120 --> 00:45:40,200
Speaker 3: case scenarios, they're a thirty and fifty team and they

980
00:45:40,239 --> 00:45:45,759
Speaker 3: missed the playoffs, everyone will remember the Suns. Everyone will

981
00:45:45,800 --> 00:45:48,040
Speaker 3: remember the Suns. They are the ones who did it first.

982
00:45:48,400 --> 00:45:52,400
Speaker 4: You're good, you know, okay, putting it off bad taking

983
00:45:52,440 --> 00:45:53,000
Speaker 4: it down worse.

984
00:45:53,120 --> 00:45:54,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's true. That's true.

985
00:45:54,800 --> 00:45:58,600
Speaker 3: Not happy. Yeah, you're back pedaled. Baby own it.

986
00:45:58,880 --> 00:46:01,920
Speaker 2: Drop some flexible jeez to respond to everybody. Should we

987
00:46:01,920 --> 00:46:03,839
Speaker 2: put one up after the show or out?

988
00:46:04,480 --> 00:46:07,239
Speaker 4: Yeah? Sure, like somebody hops onto the bike. I'm sure

989
00:46:07,280 --> 00:46:11,879
Speaker 4: there's a kettlebell around here somewhere Webby winners work, that's

990
00:46:11,920 --> 00:46:12,399
Speaker 4: all I'll say.

991
00:46:12,520 --> 00:46:15,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, but I don't know. Next show, nothing works, the

992
00:46:15,680 --> 00:46:17,919
Speaker 2: bikes cut out, lights fall down.

993
00:46:18,120 --> 00:46:20,040
Speaker 3: Oh, I'm sure that would happen while we work out

994
00:46:20,080 --> 00:46:21,759
Speaker 3: as well, because there's one of those dumbbells that you

995
00:46:21,920 --> 00:46:24,400
Speaker 3: just change adjust and it becomes like one hundred pounds.

996
00:46:24,440 --> 00:46:24,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, I got that.

997
00:46:25,400 --> 00:46:27,560
Speaker 3: Those fall apart, don't they That would fall apart?

998
00:46:27,600 --> 00:46:31,719
Speaker 2: I said I got him. I didn't say I use it.

999
00:46:33,280 --> 00:46:37,400
Speaker 3: All right? That looks intact from where I'm sitting anyways.

1000
00:46:37,680 --> 00:46:42,200
Speaker 3: Second nominee Blazers rookie Jabbari Young in his second game,

1001
00:46:42,760 --> 00:46:45,399
Speaker 3: he wore his shorts backwards, as you see if you're

1002
00:46:45,400 --> 00:46:47,320
Speaker 3: watching on YouTube in the left side of the screen.

1003
00:46:47,400 --> 00:46:48,960
Speaker 3: Here right was sort of in the middle there by

1004
00:46:49,200 --> 00:46:52,000
Speaker 3: mister high Smith. There. His shorts are backwards. You compare

1005
00:46:52,040 --> 00:46:54,240
Speaker 3: them to all the other Blazers. You see the logo

1006
00:46:54,360 --> 00:46:58,480
Speaker 3: on their shorts Walker Jabari Walker? Yeah, yeah, yeah, why

1007
00:46:58,520 --> 00:47:01,040
Speaker 3: did I wreckt? Jabari Young? Oh? Writer Jabari Young is

1008
00:47:01,080 --> 00:47:01,680
Speaker 3: probably why?

1009
00:47:02,320 --> 00:47:04,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, well I had to double check because you said Young.

1010
00:47:04,560 --> 00:47:05,680
Speaker 2: I was like, is that jab Young?

1011
00:47:05,760 --> 00:47:09,319
Speaker 3: Or is believe the shout out to uh Jabari Young

1012
00:47:09,760 --> 00:47:12,560
Speaker 3: writer Jabari? That's That's who definitely was on my brain.

1013
00:47:12,640 --> 00:47:16,279
Speaker 3: Joberry Walker, only his second game in the L took

1014
00:47:16,280 --> 00:47:18,960
Speaker 3: an L because he wore his shorts backwards. Just a

1015
00:47:19,080 --> 00:47:21,680
Speaker 3: quick one for you. As you see here running up

1016
00:47:21,719 --> 00:47:23,800
Speaker 3: the floor. You see the NBA logo if you're watching

1017
00:47:23,880 --> 00:47:26,320
Speaker 3: along on YouTube, that's on the wrong side of the shorts.

1018
00:47:27,000 --> 00:47:28,280
Speaker 4: I mean, pretty subtle.

1019
00:47:28,520 --> 00:47:31,080
Speaker 3: Yeah, very I had to dig. I had to dig

1020
00:47:31,160 --> 00:47:33,320
Speaker 3: for a few nominees this week. I guess it's like

1021
00:47:33,520 --> 00:47:37,480
Speaker 3: not that uncomfortable if he's playing and they're short shorts too, Yeah,

1022
00:47:37,960 --> 00:47:41,520
Speaker 3: short shorts. He's he's a Jabbari young guy. He'll he'll

1023
00:47:41,520 --> 00:47:44,480
Speaker 3: be all right, all right, next nominee. Here the TNT

1024
00:47:44,719 --> 00:47:49,360
Speaker 3: play by play commentator Kevin Harland, the legendary Kevin Harland,

1025
00:47:49,360 --> 00:47:52,160
Speaker 3: because he jinxed Steph Curry at the free throw line.

1026
00:47:52,560 --> 00:47:55,000
Speaker 3: Now we're gonna play the clip of Harlan with Reggie

1027
00:47:55,040 --> 00:47:58,320
Speaker 3: Miller and Candace Parker. So you'll hear the jinxing. And

1028
00:47:58,360 --> 00:48:00,640
Speaker 3: when you hear Reggie say, look at Steph, looking Steph,

1029
00:48:00,760 --> 00:48:03,359
Speaker 3: Steph is pointing at Kevin Harlan. He's literally pointing at

1030
00:48:03,440 --> 00:48:06,080
Speaker 3: Kevin Harlan after shooting the free throw because I guess

1031
00:48:06,160 --> 00:48:08,960
Speaker 3: he heard Harlan curse him. Well, here's the clip from TNT.

1032
00:48:09,719 --> 00:48:14,319
Speaker 4: Curry, here's hit the line. He has not missed this year.

1033
00:48:14,960 --> 00:48:21,760
Speaker 2: Heaven, why why so? Why? Two man? I'm so sorry

1034
00:48:22,000 --> 00:48:24,120
Speaker 2: he was twenty two of twenty two.

1035
00:48:25,239 --> 00:48:26,840
Speaker 4: I'm not a dealer in superstit.

1036
00:48:27,239 --> 00:48:29,160
Speaker 3: Look look at though, Look at what thou mean?

1037
00:48:29,360 --> 00:48:32,320
Speaker 5: Look at Stow called Clay jumpson.

1038
00:48:32,360 --> 00:48:35,839
Speaker 3: How did Stephan Curry hear you over here? Kevin down?

1039
00:48:36,400 --> 00:48:37,279
Speaker 3: And it sure was.

1040
00:48:37,640 --> 00:48:39,640
Speaker 4: He looked he knew, he knew what.

1041
00:48:39,719 --> 00:48:53,840
Speaker 3: We were saying. I feel so bad. It is a

1042
00:48:53,880 --> 00:48:57,360
Speaker 3: great moment. There's no way Steph heard you think he

1043
00:48:57,480 --> 00:49:00,560
Speaker 3: heard Kevin Harlan sitting courts. I'd say he is perfect

1044
00:49:00,600 --> 00:49:03,040
Speaker 3: from the line this year. He just knows that every

1045
00:49:03,160 --> 00:49:05,759
Speaker 3: time he goes to the line, and he was I

1046
00:49:06,000 --> 00:49:08,560
Speaker 3: guess because he is perfect, he knows that somebody's saying it.

1047
00:49:08,640 --> 00:49:10,800
Speaker 3: He knows Harlan is saying yeah, Harlan always says it,

1048
00:49:10,880 --> 00:49:12,480
Speaker 3: so he just I mean, that's how it.

1049
00:49:12,600 --> 00:49:15,759
Speaker 2: Wasn't Reggie probably like motioning to like a little bit,

1050
00:49:15,880 --> 00:49:17,560
Speaker 2: and then like when he looked over he saw that

1051
00:49:18,160 --> 00:49:21,680
Speaker 2: smiling and laughing like he did not hear Kevin Harlan

1052
00:49:21,760 --> 00:49:23,799
Speaker 2: say it, but I think he probably saw in them.

1053
00:49:24,600 --> 00:49:27,680
Speaker 4: Yeah, he saw them reacting to it, and they're like, oh,

1054
00:49:27,880 --> 00:49:29,520
Speaker 4: must be talking about the broadcasters.

1055
00:49:29,600 --> 00:49:29,880
Speaker 3: Jinks.

1056
00:49:30,160 --> 00:49:32,000
Speaker 4: Surely Steph knows he hasn't missed a pre throw at

1057
00:49:32,040 --> 00:49:32,399
Speaker 4: that point.

1058
00:49:32,600 --> 00:49:36,120
Speaker 3: Yeah, So who are you given worst, harln I'll Harlan

1059
00:49:36,400 --> 00:49:37,359
Speaker 3: giving it to Harlan. Yeah.

1060
00:49:37,400 --> 00:49:39,319
Speaker 4: I thought maybe you were gonna go to Kandas Parker

1061
00:49:39,360 --> 00:49:42,600
Speaker 4: and Reggie Miller for selling out Kevin Harlan right away,

1062
00:49:42,600 --> 00:49:44,400
Speaker 4: because they're like, hey, it was him, he was the

1063
00:49:44,440 --> 00:49:47,920
Speaker 4: one who brought it out. I think, you know, this

1064
00:49:48,000 --> 00:49:49,320
Speaker 4: is a fair worst of the week. I did have

1065
00:49:49,440 --> 00:49:51,640
Speaker 4: this as original best highlight.

1066
00:49:51,440 --> 00:49:51,880
Speaker 3: Of the season.

1067
00:49:51,960 --> 00:49:53,200
Speaker 4: Great highlight, great highlight.

1068
00:49:53,280 --> 00:49:55,440
Speaker 2: But this is interesting. So you believe in in this

1069
00:49:55,719 --> 00:49:59,680
Speaker 2: jinx having an effect, but yet putting up a workout

1070
00:49:59,760 --> 00:50:02,799
Speaker 2: video doesn't matter, has no impact on your team, whether

1071
00:50:02,880 --> 00:50:04,200
Speaker 2: or not. They lose by fifty the next game.

1072
00:50:04,560 --> 00:50:07,680
Speaker 3: Get well, I'm saying with the Raptor situation, no one

1073
00:50:07,840 --> 00:50:12,160
Speaker 3: will remember even if even if jinxes exist. But I

1074
00:50:12,719 --> 00:50:16,080
Speaker 3: do agree with Trey, Candice and Reggie calling out their teammate.

1075
00:50:16,840 --> 00:50:16,960
Speaker 4: Right.

1076
00:50:17,760 --> 00:50:20,400
Speaker 2: There was another part in watching that for like the

1077
00:50:20,440 --> 00:50:23,919
Speaker 2: second or third time, that I noticed this time there's

1078
00:50:24,000 --> 00:50:27,440
Speaker 2: a Pool is behind him, and Curry seems to smile

1079
00:50:27,480 --> 00:50:29,319
Speaker 2: at Pool, or maybe Pool had said something to him,

1080
00:50:29,400 --> 00:50:32,960
Speaker 2: because I just remembered that Pool. Didn't Pool win like

1081
00:50:33,719 --> 00:50:36,000
Speaker 2: best free throw shooter last season?

1082
00:50:37,000 --> 00:50:40,160
Speaker 3: Did he have the highest percentage from Curry? I think, yeah, oh,

1083
00:50:40,239 --> 00:50:41,319
Speaker 3: so there's something there.

1084
00:50:41,360 --> 00:50:43,880
Speaker 2: So I was wondering if Pool was like a yeah, sweet,

1085
00:50:43,880 --> 00:50:45,600
Speaker 2: you know, like they must they must have like an

1086
00:50:45,640 --> 00:50:48,360
Speaker 2: ongoing battle between free.

1087
00:50:48,200 --> 00:50:53,359
Speaker 4: Throws, right nine twenty three percentages Pool and Curry last year.

1088
00:50:53,520 --> 00:50:56,040
Speaker 3: Yeah, so that's something that the motivating Steph this year

1089
00:50:56,080 --> 00:50:56,799
Speaker 3: is to become the best.

1090
00:50:56,880 --> 00:50:57,239
Speaker 2: I think so.

1091
00:50:57,400 --> 00:50:59,760
Speaker 3: I think so. I think he's just light years ahead

1092
00:50:59,800 --> 00:51:02,160
Speaker 3: and he just knows the TNT commentators are always talking

1093
00:51:02,200 --> 00:51:04,319
Speaker 3: about his free throw so he just pointed over either way.

1094
00:51:04,800 --> 00:51:08,280
Speaker 3: We got the Toronto Raptors Twitter account, we got Jabari Walker,

1095
00:51:08,600 --> 00:51:11,680
Speaker 3: We've got the TNT crew and now nominee number four,

1096
00:51:11,760 --> 00:51:13,840
Speaker 3: the final nominee. We've got another clip for you. Actually,

1097
00:51:14,080 --> 00:51:17,840
Speaker 3: this is from the Locked On Warriors podcast where Cyrus

1098
00:51:17,920 --> 00:51:21,760
Speaker 3: Satzas and Connor Liturno tell you what types of sports

1099
00:51:21,760 --> 00:51:24,480
Speaker 3: shows you should be listening to, why you should be

1100
00:51:24,520 --> 00:51:26,560
Speaker 3: listening to them, and if you're not, you're an idiot.

1101
00:51:26,920 --> 00:51:29,719
Speaker 6: Here's the clip it does you and I talked about this,

1102
00:51:29,760 --> 00:51:31,000
Speaker 6: I can't remember if it was on the show We're

1103
00:51:31,000 --> 00:51:33,400
Speaker 6: Off the Air, about how ridiculous it is that so

1104
00:51:33,440 --> 00:51:39,440
Speaker 6: many people get their information or entertained by podcasts, by

1105
00:51:39,600 --> 00:51:43,600
Speaker 6: shows that feature people who have no connections, who have

1106
00:51:43,719 --> 00:51:46,800
Speaker 6: no background in the NBA. They're just like fans, but

1107
00:51:46,880 --> 00:51:48,200
Speaker 6: for some reason people love them.

1108
00:51:48,280 --> 00:51:53,919
Speaker 5: I mean, I don't have a problem with that if

1109
00:51:54,760 --> 00:51:58,160
Speaker 5: you know those hosts, And look, I'm good friends with

1110
00:51:58,239 --> 00:52:01,319
Speaker 5: Bram Hillsman, who's the host of Whereas. He's a very

1111
00:52:01,320 --> 00:52:03,320
Speaker 5: close friend of mine. He would tell you he's just

1112
00:52:03,400 --> 00:52:06,600
Speaker 5: a fan of the team. He's not, you know, an insider.

1113
00:52:06,680 --> 00:52:09,360
Speaker 5: But the thing that I respect about his show is

1114
00:52:09,440 --> 00:52:13,279
Speaker 5: that he has you know, experts on and all the time,

1115
00:52:13,400 --> 00:52:15,360
Speaker 5: and he and I do think that dynamic can be

1116
00:52:15,400 --> 00:52:17,759
Speaker 5: really good. But if if a podcast is just a

1117
00:52:17,840 --> 00:52:21,480
Speaker 5: couple of fans sitting around and pontificating.

1118
00:52:21,200 --> 00:52:22,160
Speaker 3: Why should I listen to you?

1119
00:52:22,520 --> 00:52:26,680
Speaker 5: Because you don't know anything more than Joe Schmoe walking

1120
00:52:26,719 --> 00:52:31,040
Speaker 5: down the street. You haven't you know, you haven't talked

1121
00:52:31,080 --> 00:52:33,400
Speaker 5: to anyone. You don't have any actual.

1122
00:52:33,160 --> 00:52:34,920
Speaker 3: Insight, absolutely you know.

1123
00:52:35,520 --> 00:52:37,400
Speaker 6: And there's some networks out there like, oh, I don't know,

1124
00:52:37,640 --> 00:52:40,400
Speaker 6: one called blue Wire. And the problem is networks like

1125
00:52:40,480 --> 00:52:43,040
Speaker 6: that tarnish the image of all the other shows, and

1126
00:52:43,120 --> 00:52:45,799
Speaker 6: these teams take note of that, and it fixed our

1127
00:52:45,920 --> 00:52:47,839
Speaker 6: damn access and credibility.

1128
00:52:47,920 --> 00:52:50,480
Speaker 3: So anyways, it blows my mind. All right, lots on

1129
00:52:50,680 --> 00:52:54,799
Speaker 3: pack here. So sports podcasting has never been better. Let's

1130
00:52:54,840 --> 00:52:58,120
Speaker 3: get that down right now. There's so many options. It's

1131
00:52:58,200 --> 00:53:01,840
Speaker 3: like a menu. You want entertainment, you want opinion, you

1132
00:53:01,960 --> 00:53:05,719
Speaker 3: want straight factoids, you want analytics. That's the great thing

1133
00:53:05,719 --> 00:53:08,879
Speaker 3: about sports podcasting right now. You can pick anything you want,

1134
00:53:09,040 --> 00:53:12,680
Speaker 3: right and also anyone can get in. You shouldn't be discouraged.

1135
00:53:12,760 --> 00:53:16,160
Speaker 3: Anyone should be discouraged by that right there. You just

1136
00:53:16,280 --> 00:53:18,800
Speaker 3: have to, you know, pick your lane. There's so much competition.

1137
00:53:18,840 --> 00:53:21,080
Speaker 3: It's it's a good thing. It's a very good thing.

1138
00:53:21,360 --> 00:53:24,040
Speaker 3: These two can have an opinion about whatever shows they

1139
00:53:24,080 --> 00:53:28,560
Speaker 3: want to listen to. That's totally fine. But it's sports.

1140
00:53:29,120 --> 00:53:30,600
Speaker 3: Let's not let's not go crazy.

1141
00:53:30,760 --> 00:53:32,480
Speaker 2: None of this means any.

1142
00:53:33,280 --> 00:53:35,160
Speaker 3: This is not life or death.

1143
00:53:35,520 --> 00:53:37,719
Speaker 2: Let's not You don't need to be gatekeeping bros.

1144
00:53:37,840 --> 00:53:42,240
Speaker 3: Yeah, let's not be a little precious about our media credentials.

1145
00:53:42,280 --> 00:53:45,400
Speaker 3: And as far as media credentials go, people with a

1146
00:53:45,480 --> 00:53:48,719
Speaker 3: media pass aren't necessarily any better with than people with

1147
00:53:49,160 --> 00:53:52,480
Speaker 3: non media passes. People not without, sorry without media passes

1148
00:53:52,840 --> 00:53:57,320
Speaker 3: aren't aren't terrible at their jobs. They can do a

1149
00:53:57,440 --> 00:54:00,840
Speaker 3: lot of fact finding, they can be formative, they can

1150
00:54:00,960 --> 00:54:04,080
Speaker 3: study the game more than anyone with the media credential.

1151
00:54:04,080 --> 00:54:06,840
Speaker 3: And in fact, the guy on the right, Laturno, he

1152
00:54:07,000 --> 00:54:10,359
Speaker 3: recently was called out by Klay Thompson because Laturno said

1153
00:54:10,440 --> 00:54:13,520
Speaker 3: I wouldn't be surprised if Klay Thompson retires at the

1154
00:54:13,640 --> 00:54:16,320
Speaker 3: end of his contract here in twenty twenty four, and

1155
00:54:16,440 --> 00:54:19,239
Speaker 3: Clay called him out. Anyone can say a dumb thing

1156
00:54:19,400 --> 00:54:23,920
Speaker 3: like that, you don't need a media pass. So the

1157
00:54:24,080 --> 00:54:28,960
Speaker 3: fact is no one should be discouraged. Again, it's a

1158
00:54:29,120 --> 00:54:33,840
Speaker 3: very splintered podcasting game. You want to hear LaRue and

1159
00:54:33,960 --> 00:54:36,799
Speaker 3: Duncan you want to hear us? You want to? That's

1160
00:54:36,960 --> 00:54:39,800
Speaker 3: the beauty of it. They can have an opinion, but

1161
00:54:39,880 --> 00:54:43,800
Speaker 3: they shouldn't be discouraging people from trying to jump in.

1162
00:54:43,880 --> 00:54:47,320
Speaker 3: It's not a members only club. It's sports podcasting and

1163
00:54:47,400 --> 00:54:50,000
Speaker 3: that's why it's good. And you can hate shows, but

1164
00:54:50,080 --> 00:54:53,279
Speaker 3: you can also like them. You know, we're sitting here

1165
00:54:53,280 --> 00:54:56,759
Speaker 3: as non fans. I mean, I mean we're sitting here

1166
00:54:56,760 --> 00:54:59,680
Speaker 3: as non fans. I'm sorry, non fans.

1167
00:54:59,640 --> 00:55:01,359
Speaker 2: As I'm not fans of that show.

1168
00:55:01,480 --> 00:55:08,120
Speaker 3: Yeah show. Yeah, it's non official media members. We don't

1169
00:55:08,160 --> 00:55:10,960
Speaker 3: go down every game. We're not beat reporters, but we

1170
00:55:11,120 --> 00:55:13,279
Speaker 3: do some homework around here. Some people like this show,

1171
00:55:13,320 --> 00:55:15,160
Speaker 3: some people freaking hate this show.

1172
00:55:16,040 --> 00:55:18,440
Speaker 2: Good for them, Awesome, that's fine. I was like so

1173
00:55:18,560 --> 00:55:20,960
Speaker 2: confused when this was making the rounds, Like what when

1174
00:55:21,160 --> 00:55:23,120
Speaker 2: was this clip from? This feels like a clip from

1175
00:55:23,200 --> 00:55:25,880
Speaker 2: like two thousand and six or seven, And then like

1176
00:55:26,080 --> 00:55:28,320
Speaker 2: maybe it was dumb back then, but it was like, Okay,

1177
00:55:28,880 --> 00:55:31,279
Speaker 2: this is new, this whole podcasting thing, this idea of

1178
00:55:31,400 --> 00:55:34,719
Speaker 2: like a fan having a show or a listenership or

1179
00:55:34,800 --> 00:55:37,839
Speaker 2: viewership whatever, and people care because they're entertained or they're

1180
00:55:37,880 --> 00:55:41,279
Speaker 2: learning or whatever. But twenty twenty two, well, give me

1181
00:55:41,360 --> 00:55:43,440
Speaker 2: a break. I mean it just sounded so insecure to me.

1182
00:55:43,760 --> 00:55:44,640
Speaker 3: But whatever's going on?

1183
00:55:44,760 --> 00:55:46,239
Speaker 2: So good? Worst the Week? It seems like the stream

1184
00:55:46,239 --> 00:55:48,960
Speaker 2: team thinks they're the winners or this show at least

1185
00:55:49,719 --> 00:55:50,240
Speaker 2: any thoughts.

1186
00:55:50,880 --> 00:55:52,640
Speaker 4: Tray go ahead, sounds like you need to get your

1187
00:55:52,680 --> 00:55:53,319
Speaker 4: downloads up.

1188
00:55:56,800 --> 00:56:00,960
Speaker 7: What sounds like it probably helps, Yeah, drive it all

1189
00:56:01,000 --> 00:56:04,920
Speaker 7: this traffic, okay, lots of nominees there, yeah, yeah, let

1190
00:56:05,040 --> 00:56:07,000
Speaker 7: us know they're in the stream team are listening later,

1191
00:56:07,239 --> 00:56:10,480
Speaker 7: tweet us in who is the worst of the week?

1192
00:56:10,800 --> 00:56:15,560
Speaker 3: Man, Man, don't be discouraged. Just don't be discouraged by

1193
00:56:15,640 --> 00:56:17,759
Speaker 3: people like that. You know you said you reminded me

1194
00:56:17,800 --> 00:56:19,640
Speaker 3: of two thousand and six. There were people in the

1195
00:56:20,320 --> 00:56:23,520
Speaker 3: the raptors PR that said, these guys in Toronto want

1196
00:56:23,600 --> 00:56:26,320
Speaker 3: a media pass or they want to they wanted to. No,

1197
00:56:26,719 --> 00:56:29,640
Speaker 3: there's no way. They wrote something on their blog once

1198
00:56:29,760 --> 00:56:31,719
Speaker 3: upon a time, you were what did you write about?

1199
00:56:31,719 --> 00:56:34,880
Speaker 3: You wrote about something that the raptors PR said, oh gosh,

1200
00:56:36,239 --> 00:56:38,120
Speaker 3: we can't let me hit that person, and it was

1201
00:56:38,200 --> 00:56:41,560
Speaker 3: like no, no, no, this was prior, that was earlier.

1202
00:56:41,880 --> 00:56:42,839
Speaker 2: That's the score days.

1203
00:56:43,600 --> 00:56:52,200
Speaker 3: This is blog spot, No it wasones dot net probably

1204
00:56:52,520 --> 00:56:57,400
Speaker 3: one free baby dot net you get it cash anyway,

1205
00:56:59,760 --> 00:57:02,240
Speaker 3: I forget the actual stay honestly.

1206
00:57:02,320 --> 00:57:04,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, but but yeah, this is what that's my point though,

1207
00:57:04,719 --> 00:57:07,799
Speaker 2: Like back then, okay again, I was rolling my eyes

1208
00:57:07,840 --> 00:57:10,600
Speaker 2: at it. Then everybody afraid of this, you know, new

1209
00:57:10,719 --> 00:57:13,400
Speaker 2: media and people, you're so scary. Yeah yeah, yeah, but

1210
00:57:13,520 --> 00:57:15,719
Speaker 2: now it's like a joke. I mean, it's just like

1211
00:57:16,120 --> 00:57:17,760
Speaker 2: I couldn't believe this was a take.

1212
00:57:17,920 --> 00:57:18,840
Speaker 3: Anyways, it's great.

1213
00:57:18,960 --> 00:57:19,560
Speaker 4: It's great.

1214
00:57:19,880 --> 00:57:22,280
Speaker 3: The people that aren't part of the game aren't beat

1215
00:57:22,320 --> 00:57:23,720
Speaker 3: reports are coming for our jobs.

1216
00:57:23,760 --> 00:57:24,160
Speaker 2: It's great.

1217
00:57:24,280 --> 00:57:26,600
Speaker 3: Makes us work harder. Oh yeah, that's great.

1218
00:57:27,920 --> 00:57:30,400
Speaker 2: All right, let's keep a move in here. Let's go

1219
00:57:30,520 --> 00:57:34,480
Speaker 2: to pick them. Results from last night Dallas Brooklyn Dallas

Speaker 2: favorite by two and a half on the road in Brooklyn.

1221
00:57:37,680 --> 00:57:40,800
Speaker 2: I took the nets and man, I was feeling good

1222
00:57:40,840 --> 00:57:43,200
Speaker 2: for a second. I was like, oh, they might cover this.

1223
00:57:43,880 --> 00:57:47,600
Speaker 3: You should have won. They went to overtime. That's that

1224
00:57:47,640 --> 00:57:48,320
Speaker 3: should be the line.

1225
00:57:48,440 --> 00:57:52,080
Speaker 2: Oh thank you. Yeah, they get punked because like navs

1226
00:57:52,160 --> 00:57:54,520

Speaker 2: four in the end. But you guys won. H tast

1228
00:57:56,680 --> 00:57:59,560
Speaker 2: six and two, really really strong start. For somebody that

1229
00:57:59,680 --> 00:58:02,800
Speaker 2: does it is just a fan of basketball. There's no

1230
00:58:03,000 --> 00:58:06,560
Speaker 2: access whatsoever. You're really good for this thing.

1231
00:58:06,640 --> 00:58:09,240
Speaker 3: Yeah, did not get it for free? Actually I did.

1232
00:58:09,320 --> 00:58:12,400
Speaker 2: You're six and two, Trey and I are three and five.

1233
00:58:14,560 --> 00:58:18,160
Speaker 2: So tonight's pick them where we go? And tasks what

1234
00:58:18,920 --> 00:58:21,800
Speaker 2: five and five? O? Nice? I think you are?

1235
00:58:21,800 --> 00:58:22,280
Speaker 3: I think you're right.

1236
00:58:22,360 --> 00:58:26,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, we're tired, we're tired. What's tonight's game there? Red

1237
00:58:26,240 --> 00:58:26,600
Speaker 2: hat Man?

1238
00:58:27,000 --> 00:58:30,040
Speaker 3: Red hat Man says, there's a double header on ESPN,

1239
00:58:30,840 --> 00:58:34,680
Speaker 3: But uh, this team that everyone thinks always gets the

1240
00:58:34,760 --> 00:58:36,720
Speaker 3: national TV games because it feels like they do. The

1241
00:58:36,760 --> 00:58:39,280
Speaker 3: New York Knicks are not on ESPN, but that's where

1242
00:58:39,280 --> 00:58:43,320
Speaker 3: we're picking. They're going into Milwaukee, and uh, I was

1243
00:58:43,400 --> 00:58:48,080
Speaker 3: comfortable jumping on the Knicks plus six and six points

1244
00:58:48,120 --> 00:58:52,080
Speaker 3: in Milwaukee. Who the heck knows? So the Bucks favor

1245
00:58:52,120 --> 00:58:54,080
Speaker 3: by six and a half at home to the New

1246
00:58:54,200 --> 00:58:56,120
Speaker 3: York Knicks.

1247
00:58:55,920 --> 00:58:58,720
Speaker 2: Baby task taking the Knicks to cover as the dogs

1248
00:58:58,800 --> 00:59:00,960
Speaker 2: on the road, and Trey and I believe the Bucks

1249
00:59:00,960 --> 00:59:04,120
Speaker 2: will stay undefeated and have to win by seven or

1250
00:59:04,240 --> 00:59:04,840
Speaker 2: more points.

1251
00:59:05,120 --> 00:59:08,680
Speaker 3: Yes, nice sket on this evening, Nice skit. Yeah, Yeah,

00:59:11,960 --> 00:59:12,439
Speaker 3: you want to say?

1254
00:59:12,920 --> 00:59:15,080
Speaker 2: Look pretty good in a hat, But I would never

1255
00:59:15,160 --> 00:59:16,360
Speaker 2: tell you to wear a hat because you have some

1256
00:59:16,480 --> 00:59:19,320
Speaker 2: of the greatest hair in the NBA media game. Hey

Speaker 2: Coming fast, that's right.

1294
01:01:21,840 --> 01:01:24,280
Speaker 4: Yeah, Wendell is a millionaire. He wanted to pay over

1295
01:01:24,360 --> 01:01:28,200
Speaker 4: one hundred dollars to go see Hawks versus nowhere. Crazy, bro,

1296
01:01:29,080 --> 01:01:32,680
Speaker 4: We're fans were not that big of fans. Were getting hot,

1297
01:01:33,360 --> 01:01:34,520
Speaker 4: literally getting I'm very hot.

1298
01:01:35,600 --> 01:01:37,680
Speaker 2: We're fired up, going on. We got to get to

1299
01:01:37,720 --> 01:01:38,800
Speaker 2: tweet the night. Let's do that.

1300
01:01:38,920 --> 01:01:45,439
Speaker 3: Tweet the night time, tweed out the night. Wow. Well,

1301
01:01:45,520 --> 01:01:47,919
Speaker 3: have you heard there's a new basketball rule that's having

1302
01:01:47,960 --> 01:01:49,720
Speaker 3: a great effect on the game. You may have not

1303
01:01:49,880 --> 01:01:51,720
Speaker 3: heard it, but if you follow Jay Skeets on Twitter,

1304
01:01:52,160 --> 01:01:53,760
Speaker 3: now you know so last year.

1305
01:01:54,040 --> 01:01:56,080
Speaker 2: Hey, before you follow me, just know I am not

1306
01:01:56,240 --> 01:01:58,560
Speaker 2: credentialed for the Hawks or any other team in the

1307
01:01:58,680 --> 01:01:59,600
Speaker 2: NBA right now, but.

1308
01:01:59,680 --> 01:02:03,120
Speaker 3: You get free tickets. I know a guy, Okay, so

1309
01:02:03,400 --> 01:02:06,200
Speaker 3: last year in the National Basketball So she's the last

1310
01:02:06,280 --> 01:02:08,920
Speaker 3: couple of years. Actually in the NBA, guys would get

1311
01:02:08,960 --> 01:02:12,760
Speaker 3: on a fast break and unfortunately one guy would foul

1312
01:02:12,880 --> 01:02:16,000
Speaker 3: the ball handler. Even a ball handler passes off, still

1313
01:02:16,040 --> 01:02:19,280
Speaker 3: going to foul him, and we don't see the athleticism

1314
01:02:19,320 --> 01:02:22,240
Speaker 3: at the rim. It's it's been unfortunate that take foul

1315
01:02:23,360 --> 01:02:26,200
Speaker 3: has been negated by a new rule. Things are changing

1316
01:02:26,280 --> 01:02:29,200
Speaker 3: and the new penalty for all you who have forgotten,

1317
01:02:29,240 --> 01:02:31,640
Speaker 3: because I kind of forgot, because it's not being employed

1318
01:02:31,640 --> 01:02:34,800
Speaker 3: all that often. A take foul, which is what is

1319
01:02:34,960 --> 01:02:37,720
Speaker 3: called when a guy you know, fouls a guy intentionally

1320
01:02:37,800 --> 01:02:40,200
Speaker 3: when he's on the break, is now one three, one

1321
01:02:40,320 --> 01:02:45,040
Speaker 3: free throw and the ball for the team that is

1322
01:02:45,880 --> 01:02:50,200
Speaker 3: taking that foul. So now, unfortunately for those take fowlers,

1323
01:02:51,720 --> 01:02:55,920
Speaker 3: they got to stop the athletic teams. Yeah no, I'm

1324
01:02:56,000 --> 01:02:56,840
Speaker 3: so fired up.

1325
01:02:58,720 --> 01:03:02,440
Speaker 2: Just good about this. Really weird you're like talking to

1326
01:03:02,600 --> 01:03:05,400
Speaker 2: those backwards. So now, but I got it, I'm following.

1327
01:03:05,840 --> 01:03:11,000
Speaker 3: Okay, yeah, talk about your tweet on tweeted the night

1328
01:03:11,120 --> 01:03:12,360
Speaker 3: your tweeting that I show the.

1329
01:03:12,400 --> 01:03:15,000
Speaker 2: Damn tweet that help him out. I'm burying this guy

1330
01:03:15,080 --> 01:03:16,000
Speaker 2: over here. He's trying to.

1331
01:03:16,000 --> 01:03:18,320
Speaker 8: Explain it, just wondering what.

1332
01:03:19,920 --> 01:03:20,320
Speaker 3: Is working.

1333
01:03:21,000 --> 01:03:23,240
Speaker 2: Again, I want you to know I am not credentialed.

1334
01:03:23,360 --> 01:03:28,360
Speaker 2: I have no real insight or you know, I'm not

1335
01:03:28,520 --> 01:03:30,920
Speaker 2: plugged in, So you should only take my tweet at

1336
01:03:30,960 --> 01:03:33,480
Speaker 2: face value because I really don't know what I'm talking about.

1337
01:03:33,640 --> 01:03:36,600
Speaker 2: Just a fan love the game. Uh yeah, this is

1338
01:03:36,640 --> 01:03:40,520
Speaker 2: from the Score, our former workplace, pointing this out, and

1339
01:03:41,000 --> 01:03:44,000
Speaker 2: hell yeah, it's working because look at the percentage of

1340
01:03:44,040 --> 01:03:47,640
Speaker 2: steels leading to transition possessions. It's just exploded because there's

1341
01:03:47,680 --> 01:03:50,640
Speaker 2: less people just wrapping them up, stopping that fast break play.

1342
01:03:50,720 --> 01:03:53,760
Speaker 2: It's it's just a great implementation of this rule, and

1343
01:03:53,960 --> 01:03:56,920
Speaker 2: so far we're seeing results. There's been you're you're not

1344
01:03:57,040 --> 01:03:59,400
Speaker 2: wrong tasks. I can't think of many times I've seen it.

1345
01:04:00,320 --> 01:04:02,920
Speaker 2: How many times does this happen? Take fouls here?

1346
01:04:03,400 --> 01:04:05,800
Speaker 4: I saw James Harden once go for a take foul

1347
01:04:05,880 --> 01:04:07,120
Speaker 4: and then remember he couldn't do it.

1348
01:04:07,160 --> 01:04:11,000
Speaker 3: Take there's a lot of yeah, yeah, not such a yeah,

1349
01:04:11,200 --> 01:04:14,000
Speaker 3: but maybe it's smart to do that. I don't want,

1350
01:04:14,440 --> 01:04:16,720
Speaker 3: I don't want. I don't want to encourage it. I

1351
01:04:16,760 --> 01:04:19,160
Speaker 3: don't want to encourage it. But one plus the ball

1352
01:04:19,480 --> 01:04:23,280
Speaker 3: is better than two points at times, maybe this rule

1353
01:04:23,400 --> 01:04:26,840
Speaker 3: isn't strong enough. What one plus the ball instead of

1354
01:04:27,080 --> 01:04:30,360
Speaker 3: instead of a guaranteed two points or three points and

1355
01:04:30,920 --> 01:04:33,880
Speaker 3: the crowd getting behind you and the momentum. Maybe one

1356
01:04:33,960 --> 01:04:36,440
Speaker 3: plus the ball isn't enough. Maybe we'll see the pendulum

1357
01:04:36,440 --> 01:04:37,280
Speaker 3: swing back the other way.

1358
01:04:38,080 --> 01:04:40,960
Speaker 2: They gotta crunch the numbers, you're saying, and then start

1359
01:04:41,000 --> 01:04:42,200
Speaker 2: wrapping them up anyway.

1360
01:04:42,920 --> 01:04:45,400
Speaker 3: Well, yeah, we're seeing it now least, but who knows?

1361
01:04:45,560 --> 01:04:49,880
Speaker 3: Who knows? At times? You you know, it's guaranteed two points,

1362
01:04:50,640 --> 01:04:51,560
Speaker 3: so why the heck not?

1363
01:04:51,800 --> 01:04:55,200
Speaker 2: Game is moving a little fear. That's always a plus.

1364
01:04:55,560 --> 01:04:56,280
Speaker 3: Yeah. The rules.

1365
01:04:56,600 --> 01:04:57,440
Speaker 4: As fans, we love it.

1366
01:04:57,600 --> 01:05:00,880
Speaker 3: Hell yeah, as fans, we do love it. Yeah, the

1367
01:05:01,040 --> 01:05:03,560
Speaker 3: rules that definitely that and plus the rule that was

1368
01:05:03,600 --> 01:05:07,920
Speaker 3: implemented last year for the out of bounds call at

1369
01:05:07,960 --> 01:05:09,920
Speaker 3: the end of the games not to be reviewed at

1370
01:05:10,040 --> 01:05:12,840
Speaker 3: every freaking turn. That definitely has helped the speed at

1371
01:05:12,880 --> 01:05:14,520
Speaker 3: the end of the games, which has always been a

1372
01:05:14,560 --> 01:05:19,240
Speaker 3: problem for the NBA for for decades. So yeah, that's

1373
01:05:19,320 --> 01:05:21,600
Speaker 3: that's definitely improved. The game is just flying at the end.

1374
01:05:22,120 --> 01:05:25,760
Speaker 2: It feels like it's better, absolutely better. I could still

1375
01:05:25,840 --> 01:05:32,000
Speaker 2: do with less timeouts overall, because you know, still we

1376
01:05:32,040 --> 01:05:34,120
Speaker 2: get all the time out, time out, time out timeout.

1377
01:05:34,160 --> 01:05:36,160
Speaker 2: They want to drop up and plays like that. Hornet's

1378
01:05:36,640 --> 01:05:39,080
Speaker 2: next game was a good example of that. Down the

1379
01:05:39,120 --> 01:05:41,160
Speaker 2: stretch a lot of time they've saved the timeouts and

Speaker 3: Ye got a lot of pockets JD.

1572
01:15:06,200 --> 01:15:08,160
Speaker 8: Yeah, it's a little bit of a cool story, bro.

1573
01:15:08,320 --> 01:15:10,960
Speaker 8: But and it comes up. It makes my blood boil

1574
01:15:11,040 --> 01:15:13,240
Speaker 8: every time I think of it. Every six months when

1575
01:15:13,280 --> 01:15:14,479
Speaker 8: my kids have to go to the dentist.

1576
01:15:15,640 --> 01:15:16,519
Speaker 3: They go to the dentist.

1577
01:15:16,640 --> 01:15:20,120
Speaker 8: One time they're younger, much younger is but four or

1578
01:15:20,160 --> 01:15:24,960
Speaker 8: five years ago. And these kids never flass, like never,

1579
01:15:25,320 --> 01:15:27,720
Speaker 8: And I like it's a battle. It's battle just to

1580
01:15:27,760 --> 01:15:30,800
Speaker 8: get them to brush their teeth. But I want them

1581
01:15:30,840 --> 01:15:33,559
Speaker 8: to floss because you know it's important. I'm a floss.

1582
01:15:33,720 --> 01:15:37,080
Speaker 8: I floss every day, every single day. Of frost anyway,

1583
01:15:37,160 --> 01:15:38,040
Speaker 8: So I go, I go.

1584
01:15:38,560 --> 01:15:41,400
Speaker 3: It sounds like you want some sort of award. I do.

1585
01:15:42,320 --> 01:15:42,519
Speaker 4: I do.

1586
01:15:43,360 --> 01:15:46,439
Speaker 8: My reward is I never had a cavity. I don't

1587
01:15:46,439 --> 01:15:49,759
Speaker 8: spend any money on dental work because of the flossing.

1588
01:15:50,120 --> 01:15:51,200
Speaker 8: So it's important to me.

1589
01:15:51,600 --> 01:15:53,920
Speaker 3: You've got that the little kit that you used to

1590
01:15:54,000 --> 01:15:58,880
Speaker 3: carry at an NBA TV mid day post lunch taking

1591
01:15:58,920 --> 01:15:59,320
Speaker 3: care of those.

1592
01:16:00,240 --> 01:16:02,679
Speaker 8: It's the only good thing on my body that still

1593
01:16:02,720 --> 01:16:09,880
Speaker 8: works that in my sense of smell anyway, So I go,

1594
01:16:10,200 --> 01:16:15,640
Speaker 8: so this is so I go to the hygienist. I go, hey, uh,

1595
01:16:16,200 --> 01:16:18,080
Speaker 8: you know, laying it on a little thick. I'm like,

1596
01:16:18,520 --> 01:16:23,040
Speaker 8: she says, to me, any concerns, anything you're worried about,

1597
01:16:23,320 --> 01:16:26,559
Speaker 8: And I'm like, well, I'm not sure they've been flossing.

1598
01:16:26,600 --> 01:16:28,640
Speaker 8: Could you just check and make sure? This is like

1599
01:16:28,720 --> 01:16:32,800
Speaker 8: a dropping a massive hint. Like because she's a dental hygienist,

1600
01:16:33,080 --> 01:16:35,800
Speaker 8: she could say she'd pick up on that hit hint.

1601
01:16:35,880 --> 01:16:38,000
Speaker 8: And no matter what she sees in there, she's like, oh, yeah,

1602
01:16:38,600 --> 01:16:41,439
Speaker 8: you guys should be fast because I just need a second.

1603
01:16:42,160 --> 01:16:45,639
Speaker 8: Just back me up, lady. And she's so she went

1604
01:16:45,680 --> 01:16:47,240
Speaker 8: in there, she did all her cleaning, and she comes

1605
01:16:47,280 --> 01:16:53,640
Speaker 8: out now perfectly fine, perfectly fine, no problem at all, Like,

1606
01:16:54,520 --> 01:16:57,560
Speaker 8: what are you doing? What are you doing? Are you

1607
01:16:57,720 --> 01:17:01,160
Speaker 8: in the dental profession or aren't you like, are you

1608
01:17:01,280 --> 01:17:04,519
Speaker 8: interested in them having good? Listen, half their teeth were

1609
01:17:04,600 --> 01:17:07,080
Speaker 8: not even in their mouth. That's not the point. Like

1610
01:17:07,479 --> 01:17:09,599
Speaker 8: you know, they were missing teeth because the baby teeth.

1611
01:17:09,439 --> 01:17:10,320
Speaker 3: Has fallen out, you know.

1612
01:17:10,520 --> 01:17:14,599
Speaker 8: Okay, okay, so you know, and like in a big

1613
01:17:14,720 --> 01:17:17,760
Speaker 8: spaces between his teeth. The flossing's not gonna do much.

1614
01:17:18,120 --> 01:17:20,000
Speaker 8: But it's a habit. I want to form a habit,

1615
01:17:20,240 --> 01:17:23,560
Speaker 8: So work with me, lady. Anyways, that's it.

1616
01:17:25,560 --> 01:17:26,360
Speaker 2: Eyes bugging out.

1617
01:17:26,760 --> 01:17:27,400
Speaker 4: That's a good one.

1618
01:17:28,320 --> 01:17:30,519
Speaker 8: And then we keep going back to that dentist. Then Rachel,

1619
01:17:31,000 --> 01:17:33,040
Speaker 8: she won't, she won't take him anywhere else because it's

1620
01:17:33,040 --> 01:17:34,960
Speaker 8: just around the corner. She like, the dentist is great,

1621
01:17:35,240 --> 01:17:39,280
Speaker 8: but the hygienist just makes me furious. Anyways.

01:18:47,360 --> 01:18:49,519
Speaker 2: Monday or Tuesday, I gotta check my phone.

1647
01:18:49,560 --> 01:18:50,160
Speaker 3: This is why I have it.

1650
01:18:56,760 --> 01:18:58,439
Speaker 2: just want to get it done right away because I

1651
01:18:58,520 --> 01:19:01,600
Speaker 2: hate seeing things that are like still to do. So

1652
01:19:02,200 --> 01:19:05,280
Speaker 2: I will sometimes take my garbage out at like eight

1653
01:19:05,400 --> 01:19:07,080
Speaker 2: or nine in the morning before I come in here

1654
01:19:07,360 --> 01:19:10,000
Speaker 2: for the next date. Yeah. Now, you're not supposed to

1655
01:19:10,080 --> 01:19:13,439
Speaker 2: do this, So I am prematurely taking my garbage bins

1656
01:19:13,479 --> 01:19:16,519
Speaker 2: out just to make myself feel better, to cross it

1657
01:19:16,600 --> 01:19:19,479
Speaker 2: off my lists. I checked it. I believe you're not

1658
01:19:19,520 --> 01:19:22,000
Speaker 2: supposed to have those out there prior to three pm

1659
01:19:22,680 --> 01:19:25,479
Speaker 2: Eastern the day before the morning early. Yeah, and that's early.

1660
01:19:25,880 --> 01:19:27,040
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's way too now.

1661
01:19:27,240 --> 01:19:30,160
Speaker 2: I would like to counter those tests because sometimes I

1662
01:19:30,240 --> 01:19:33,000
Speaker 2: am a man that checks the weather. Yeah, nice in

1663
01:19:33,040 --> 01:19:36,160
Speaker 2: the morning, maybe you know, early afternoon, but then it's

1664
01:19:36,160 --> 01:19:38,880
Speaker 2: going to turn into a storm. I've seen many times

1665
01:19:38,960 --> 01:19:40,840
Speaker 2: my poor neighbor out there in the middle of a

1666
01:19:40,920 --> 01:19:43,200
Speaker 2: storm dragging his bins out, and I'd have been sitting

1667
01:19:43,240 --> 01:19:45,840
Speaker 2: out there at twelve o'clock. I already got them out there.

1668
01:19:46,439 --> 01:19:47,600
Speaker 4: I thought you were going to say they were like

1669
01:19:47,800 --> 01:19:50,400
Speaker 4: bringing their bins back in. That was gonna be wild

1670
01:19:50,439 --> 01:19:50,600
Speaker 4: to me.

1671
01:19:50,760 --> 01:19:52,720
Speaker 2: No, no, no, no, They're just they have to do

1672
01:19:52,800 --> 01:19:54,479
Speaker 2: it in the rain, is what I'm saying. Where it's

1673
01:19:54,520 --> 01:19:56,880
Speaker 2: like if you had done it early like me. But look,

1674
01:19:56,920 --> 01:20:00,240
Speaker 2: I'm well aware they're out there too early now. I

1675
01:20:00,320 --> 01:20:03,240
Speaker 2: think we have a wide enough street. I'm not obstructing

1676
01:20:03,280 --> 01:20:05,439
Speaker 2: anybody on my street, like getting around them. I'm on

1677
01:20:05,520 --> 01:20:08,400
Speaker 2: a dead end. There's that part too. I don't think

1678
01:20:08,400 --> 01:20:11,600
Speaker 2: I'm really like, nobody said anything to me yet, and

1679
01:20:11,640 --> 01:20:13,600
Speaker 2: I'm not doing it every week, but sometimes I like

1680
01:20:13,680 --> 01:20:15,479
Speaker 2: just to get them out there and get it checked

1681
01:20:15,479 --> 01:20:16,000
Speaker 2: off my list.

1682
01:20:16,920 --> 01:20:19,320
Speaker 3: So JD Is walking by with his sense of smell, saying,

1683
01:20:19,439 --> 01:20:21,320
Speaker 3: oh man, I gotta smell the garbage tomorrow. Now, I

1684
01:20:21,360 --> 01:20:23,200
Speaker 3: gotta smell it today, walking by day.

1685
01:20:23,280 --> 01:20:25,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, but if you're walking your dog. Got my sticker

1686
01:20:25,120 --> 01:20:27,840
Speaker 2: on there that says if the bag is tied, drop

1687
01:20:27,920 --> 01:20:29,840
Speaker 2: it inside. No issue.

1688
01:20:29,920 --> 01:20:32,719
Speaker 3: I'm fine with this. You are issues.

1689
01:20:33,360 --> 01:20:34,040
Speaker 2: I mean it goes.

1690
01:20:34,160 --> 01:20:34,960
Speaker 8: It's a free country.

1691
01:20:35,320 --> 01:20:38,240
Speaker 2: I think it's better prematurely getting those bins out there

1692
01:20:38,280 --> 01:20:40,120
Speaker 2: than it is not bringing them back in when they're

1693
01:20:40,160 --> 01:20:42,680
Speaker 2: empty and knocked over and open and stuff like that.

1694
01:20:44,040 --> 01:20:44,400
Speaker 3: Not good.

1695
01:20:44,520 --> 01:20:46,840
Speaker 4: Yeah, been on the ground, hate to see it. Test

1696
01:20:46,920 --> 01:20:49,360
Speaker 4: one's a time something prematurely.

1697
01:20:49,640 --> 01:20:59,200
Speaker 3: Haven't ever I'm always late premature it's yes, yeah, something

1698
01:20:59,240 --> 01:21:03,360
Speaker 3: happened there. It was nice. Yeah, okay, no, no, I

1699
01:21:03,360 --> 01:21:06,599
Speaker 3: shouldn't have been here at least. Yeah, it's a bad

1700
01:21:06,680 --> 01:21:07,439
Speaker 3: sign if I'm early.

1701
01:21:08,840 --> 01:21:12,720
Speaker 2: Oh no, what's wrong with it's really something to got

1702
01:21:12,760 --> 01:21:15,400
Speaker 2: horribly wrong? Oh yeah JD.

1703
01:21:16,760 --> 01:21:20,840
Speaker 8: Yeah, I'm very very rarely premature. But one uh, I'll

1704
01:21:20,920 --> 01:21:24,760
Speaker 8: make this quick. When Rachel was pregnant with Lincoln, she

1705
01:21:24,920 --> 01:21:30,080
Speaker 8: was hospitalized. She had placenta preview as she was on

1706
01:21:30,560 --> 01:21:35,160
Speaker 8: bed rest. It's pretty serious. You could bleed to death basically,

1707
01:21:35,520 --> 01:21:38,960
Speaker 8: but she did get a day pass. One time they

1708
01:21:39,040 --> 01:21:41,040
Speaker 8: told us not to have sex, but we definitely had sex.

1709
01:21:41,240 --> 01:21:44,720
Speaker 8: And then that night she started bleeding and she had

1710
01:21:44,760 --> 01:21:49,479
Speaker 8: a baby, a month early, premature baby. So I'm gonna

1711
01:21:49,479 --> 01:21:50,720
Speaker 8: take half the responsibility.

1712
01:21:51,360 --> 01:21:52,960
Speaker 2: Wow.

1713
01:21:53,160 --> 01:21:57,560
Speaker 3: So yeah, sixteen years of doing this show, had not

1714
01:21:57,680 --> 01:21:58,840
Speaker 3: heard that part of the story.

1715
01:21:58,960 --> 01:22:03,120
Speaker 8: Yeah, you know, it could have killed her. I guess

1716
01:22:03,880 --> 01:22:08,880
Speaker 8: so uh yeah, it's fine, very interesting. This was your

1717
01:22:08,920 --> 01:22:10,679
Speaker 8: first that was Lincoln.

1718
01:22:10,920 --> 01:22:11,240
Speaker 2: Lincoln.

1719
01:22:11,439 --> 01:22:12,040
Speaker 4: Yeah, there you go.

1720
01:22:12,520 --> 01:22:14,759
Speaker 8: Remember that night that we were doing a show. Actually,

1721
01:22:17,360 --> 01:22:22,280
Speaker 8: well many times, but this particular time she started bleeding.

1722
01:22:22,400 --> 01:22:25,280
Speaker 8: She was pregnant with Lincoln, and then I was like gotta,

1723
01:22:25,439 --> 01:22:28,400
Speaker 8: I gotta go, like uh and then she was I

1724
01:22:28,439 --> 01:22:31,200
Speaker 8: guess six months pregnant at the time, I do remember,

1725
01:22:31,240 --> 01:22:34,680
Speaker 8: and then it just was like that was like the

1726
01:22:34,800 --> 01:22:36,720
Speaker 8: one of the only times we pulled the plug and

1727
01:22:36,840 --> 01:22:39,759
Speaker 8: we just didn't do a show. Rushed to the hospital

1728
01:22:39,800 --> 01:22:41,679
Speaker 8: and then she was in the hospital for another eight weeks.

1729
01:22:41,880 --> 01:22:46,240
Speaker 3: Cool, crazy, Wow, Canadian Healthcare came through though.

1730
01:22:46,720 --> 01:22:49,760
Speaker 8: Can you imagine the bill she would have got eight

1731
01:22:50,080 --> 01:22:54,720
Speaker 8: eight weeks plus the birth plus in uh in the

1732
01:22:55,040 --> 01:22:57,240
Speaker 8: high the high Risk pregnancy board.

1733
01:22:57,840 --> 01:22:59,679
Speaker 3: Crazy, it's crazy.
